Bloodberry

Description:

A small herb up to 250 cm tall found on roadside all over the city and outskirts of Rantepao in the Toraja highlands, South Sulawesi, Indonesia. The tiny white flowers and ripe red fruits borne on long stalks are very attractive.

Habitat:

Roadside, in shade beside buildings.

Notes:

I collected some seeds and brought them to Malaysia and was able to grow a few healthy plants which later flowered and fruited. The latter photos are those of planted material away from the native site.
