Feature Notes:
Almost identical to ones adventive in New York City in the last two decades but the central stem not as strong, and fewer and longer hairs on the stem, the foliage not viscid, the stems only slightly so. Flowers visited by a small bumble bee (9:00 A.M., sunny), the same one visiting nearby no. 54664 Solanum dulcamara L.
