Does anyone know of the seeds inside the berries from this plant, solanum, can be used to start new plants. All the berries have fallen off my plant .If the answer is yes, when is best to plant them indoors. Does this plant survive outdoors in cold Scotland?

I thought I would grow some this year and see how they perform.
I know they're not hardy plants so a certain degree of frost will kill them, but we've had only a handful of frosts here this winter amd no proper cold weather.
Hopefully we'll both get an answer

I have read that the right time to sow is early Spring (March). Then they flower in summer and berries form and colour-up during Autumn that should persist for a couple of months or so.

I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
I'm fairly sure they're not a hybrid, so saved seed should come true if you save some seed from very ripe berries.
