Solanum sibundoyense, also known as tomate salvaje or tomate silvestre, is a plant species found only in Colombia, specifically in the Sibundoy region. It grows in cloud forests at elevations between 1400-2300 meters and can reach heights of 4-8 meters. The plant produces large edible fruits with a pleasant acidulous taste, making it a potential fruit crop. However, it is difficult to cultivate outside of its native climate. The fruit has also been used historically by the native people of Sibundoy to make dyes and as a cure for intestinal worms. The leaves of the plant are used for medicinal purposes by the Kamsá Indians.
