Solana, Tolumnia species are common on many Carribean Islands where they grow as "twig epiphytes" in tops of trees. They like lots of light (mine get full sun, through a screened south window, when the sun is out) and roots need to dry out between waterings. I have mine (I have 4 different kinds) planted in clay pots or baskets in charcoal chunks. I water by submerging them in dilute MSU mix every morning. A fan runs toward them 24/7 thus the plant dries out over night. They are really fun little plants with great blossom displays.
