      Thorn Apple. Datura stramonium,
      Rather on the poisonous side.

        Well actually Pete, I had three of these things out front, and I took a spade to them to get rid. I put gloves on, but one plant was quite big and brushed on my arm.... didn`t feel anything at first and thought no more of it, but now, in spite of warm water and soap, there`s a blotchy patch there and it feels like pins and needles.
