Hello! This is a note to let the editors of this article know that File:Lycianthes rantonnetii.jpg will be appearing as picture of the day on October 26, 2010. You can view and edit the POTD blurb at Template:POTD/2010-10-26. If this article needs any attention or maintenance, it would be preferable if that could be done before its appearance on the Main Page so Wikipedia doesn't look bad. :) Thanks! howcheng {chat} 17:06, 25 October 2010 (UTC)Reply

The Blue Potato Bush is one of about 200 species in the genus Lycianthes, which are found mostly in tropical regions of the Americas, and others located in the Asia-Pacific region. Lycianthes is apparently closely related to the chili peppers (Capsicum). However, it was long confused with the nightshades (Solanum), and several little-known Solanum species presumably should be included with Lycianthes.Photo: Noodle snacks

Characteristics section

I find this section somewhat opaque. Normlly it would be used to describe the physical characteristics that species within the genus have in common. Morphology, reproduction, etc. Darorcilmir (talk) 21:59, 30 March 2018 (UTC).Reply
