I've found a plant that is very small and has flowers that are basically
miniature potatoe flowers, white on outside and orange/yellow in middle

It porduces berries that look like miniature tomatoes (about the size of
rowan berries) but turn dark purple/black

The leaveas are not unlike potatoes/tomatoes but the plant grows not more
than about 6inches hight


Well it's sure not a Bonzai fig...so it's probably a potato ! Because we
usually dig them up before they have seeded..what you have is a probably a
potato fruit!


... except that potato fruits are marble sized not rowan berry sized.
