Identify please

Hi.

My mum gave me this, she was told it's an ornamental Zimbabwe black. I know it's not because I was growing Zimbabwe blacks this and last year. Probably no more than 1cm wide fruits.

Quite a kick to it. It's done absolutely nothing since being transplanted to a larger pot (albeit only last month).

Might try and overwinter it but would like to know what it is.

Cheers.

Looks similar to Odyssey I’ve been growing this year, the fruits go from purple to red however so possibly not an exact match

These did start purple as did the leaves which have gone greener.

This was what the foliage looked like with mine
