A worldwide community photographing and learning about wildlife
Solanum viarum
The leaves were the most noticeable thing about the plant, with large spikes protruding from the main veins. The fruit was colored similarly to a watermelon and it was between the size of grape and a plum. I didn't see any open flowers, but photo 4 shows a bud. The buds were hairy just like the leaves.
Grassy, disturbed area that looked like a horse trail. Payne's Prairie Preserve State Park
Considered a noxious weed. Spread by livestock and wild animals.
