Purple flower that turns into spike ball #351644

Asked August 09, 2016, 3:24 PM EDT

I recently bought, what the lable said blueberries, but I am unsure of that now. It first grows a purple flower, drops awayand leaves a spiky ball looking thing.

Expert Response

it is definitely not blueberries. It appears to be jimson weed, which all parts of the plant are poisonous. Follow the link below to find out more information about this plant.
