    I've liked this plant for a while and saw one today on a plant stall for just £1 so bought it. Shame I don't know what it is. Please note that due to the flash the 'fruit' appears yellow but is in actuality more of an orange in most of them.

    Many thanks.

    Edit: I presume it is easy because I've seen the plant in many local shops, even at Tesco. I wasn't just assuming that the identification of random plants based on a single picture from a stranger was an easy task.

    Looks like Solanum pseudocapsicum maybe. If so,Don't eat the fruits...they are poisonous!
