Devil'S Fig

Description

Small shrub to 3-5ft, noticable for its large, velvety, fuzzy leaves. The trunk and branches can have small thorns, though they aren't particularly prominent. The large leaves grow to several inches. Clustered purple flowers, of the classic Solanaceae look and shape are borne in Spring and Summer. Cherry-tomato sized fruits follow and ripen to a dark purple with grayish green spots. The fruits are probably not edible.
