Best Answer

An aggressive, flowering, fruiting, poisonous, prickly perennials is what Solanum carolinenseis.

Specifically, the plant in question carries the common names apple of Sodom, bull nettle, Carolina horsenettle, devil's tomato, radical weed, sand briar (or brier), and tread-softly. It has blue-, purple- or white-colored, five-petaled, yellow-centered flowers. Its fruit is tomato-like, wrinkled and yellow-colored. Its stems mature so fast that the plant quickly reaches heights of 3 feet (1 meter) and more. Spines - which are difficult to extract from human skin and cause irritation and pain - riddle the plant's stems. All parts of the plant shelter the toxic alkaloid solanine. The plant survives several growing seasons while ensuring future generations through prolific seed-producing and underground rhizome-spreading.
