Thanks Garg ji. The leaves are not dentate sinuate as much as expected for S. villosum. The posted plant has leaves with almost entire margin. The flowers are tiny - less than 5 mm across, thus making me think of *Solanum americanum*.
Nidhan ji, please let me know if I am mistaking; or missing some characteristic leading to *S. villosum*. Hope we get validating comments. Regards. Dinesh On Sat, Dec 14, 2019 at 10:33 AM J.M.
