What kind of tree is this (pics included)?

I planted wild flowers but this has grown from the soil along with them. I have no idea what it is. It looks like a young tree, it's about a foot and a half tall right now and producing berries which are green at first then turn purple. there are 3 total growing around the same place the others are smaller. do you have any idea what kind of tree/plant it is? Here are the links for pics of the berries it's producing and the leaves.

It's definitely in the genus Solanum, probably black nightshade, Solanum nigrum, and absolutely not a tree!


here's a picture of black nightshade:

Reply:ya, the links don't work for me either





How big are the berries? Are there thorns on it anywhere?





Almost sounds like a black raspberry





I'll star and try to remember to look back...








OK got the location and picture....I lived in New Hampshire most my life....never saw anything similar. Somebody from your area will probably get it
Reply:I can't find the pictures, the links you posted don't work. Maybe you could use Imagesocket instead? Also it would help if you told us what part of the world you live in.
