So should Hawaiianlilikoi have the rescue squad stand by when she tries out the fruit?

Thank you for your help though. When I originally posted this, I could not remember what it was called

I just found out that this is a cutting from a cutting off the mother plant that did bear fruit.

Yes I meant a naranjilla. It is still young and in a pot. I was just told that this is what it is.

parityanimal is correct. The plant in the photo is Gynura aurantiaca. Hawaiianlilikoi, the plant you menntioned perhaps is ‘Naranjilla’ (Solanum quitoense). It does bear edible fruits. Although both have velvety purplish looking leaves. The Naranjilla leaf’s edge and veins are different than Gynura aurantiaca’s. Best wish! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solanum_quitoense#/media/File:Naranjillaplant.jpg

Okay I just found out that it is a Naranjia. Originally from Peru and the fruit is definitely edible.

No it’s something called a narajia or something like that? The fruit it produces is supposed to be edible

Oh, and I would not recommend eating it…

Or perhaps another Gynura. There are several similar plants in the genus.

Looks like a Gynura aurantiaca, Purple Velvet Plant to me.
