Can someone help me identify this house plant?
in Plants
I have aquired a house plant, after my house mate almost killed it. I'm not sure what conditions it wants, so could someone help me identify it?
It's smallish, no bigger than 30cm tall. It has thinnish leaves, about 60mm long, which are furry, but not soft. It has small berries/fruits that are an orange colour, about 15mm big.
It's growing very quickly on the sunny windowsill it's on at the moment, and gets very thirsty. I'd say it's grown a good 60mm in the last week.
Can someone help me?

Hello, your plant is Solanum or Winter Cherry. Keep cool and place in a light situation with some sun. Keep the compost moist. (Information from The House Plant Expert)
Good luck with it. daydaisy
