Hi all, this is the plant that has grown in the conservatory with another indoor plant in the same pot. We have no idea where this one came from as we have had the house plant for years ! Please identify !

Hi all, I have had a look at various websites and I too think solanus nigrum ! Need to get rid ?? I have a 12 year old son, a cat and a dog !

Dispose of immediately, and don't leave any berries lying about!

yes definatly
I would avoid a compost bin too, straight into a garden waste bin to be removed if you have one
I would wear gloves too in case of a reaction
