Re: Naranjilla (Solanum quitoense)
Looking at the plant and knowing it is in the same genus as tomatoes, peppers, etc. -- you'll notice that it has characteristics of eggplant in the leaves and tomatillo in the fruit, although there are no "husks". The skin is tougher than a tomatillo in fact not unlike eggplant skin. The taste of the fruit ... well it is a tomatillo that tastes strongly of sweet citrus.
