Solanum melongena
Thanks for the information! That makes sense.
Peppers, Tomatoes, Tobacco, Eggplant, Potatoes are in the same family, that is why the flowers looks little similar.
May be they have some relation at the level of family? One learns lots with Noah :-)
You're right, it is very similar to the potato flower. It is strange how plants so different have flowers that are almost identical.
I s so similar to the potato flower..I did not know they look so much alike :-)
