Solanum pubescens is a shrub commonly found in the foot hill areas of southern India and Sri Lanka. It is closely related to the Turkey berry and is distinguishable by its lack of spines and smaller leaves covered in sticky hairs. The shrub produces large purple to violet flowers from August to December, followed by 1.2 cm diameter fruits that are initially bitter but turn orange when ripe. Locals use the foliage as green manure and consume the immature fruits for their medicinal properties, which include healing bowel complaints and joint pains. The dried fruits are also used in cooking and are of economic importance, with several tons being sold in the market each year. The shrub contains chemical compounds such as Tri hydroxy flavone derivatives and Trihydroxy steroidal alkaloides, including Solanopubamine and Solanopubamides A & B.
