I was visiting a farm today on behalf of a new client and came across a 5′ bush in the nightshade family. The leaves are quite pungent in aroma, smelling rather like curry.

The flowers are the dead giveaway on the family. See how they look like tomato or eggplant blooms?

The fruit are also tomato or pepper-like, rather similar to Solanum nigrum,

The scent of the leaves is very good, though – they smell like something I’d want to add to a stir-fry. Since this is a family with poisonous members, I’ll pass until I get a solid ID. It’s a big bush, not a small plant. Small flowers, very pungent leaves that smell spicy. Any guesses are appreciated!
