Horse-Nettle

A flower found in fields. White flowers with white, reflexed petal and thick egg-yellow stamens that I think, look exactly like eggplant blooms. Dark green, thick leaves are widely toothed with pricks on the point and the stems have prickles. The "berries" look like mini-tomato; green-striped turning orange.
