Hey nature lovers and survivalists, found this little ground plant hidden amongst some tumble weeds I was thinning/killing the other day. Almost cleared this little girl out too, but paused and said "that looks different!" Glad I didn't pluck it out. Anyone know what it is?

Good guesses everyone! Truth is I'm not sure what it is either!
  I've looked up all these suggestions and didn't find any of them that looked like this plant though. What I "think" it could be is a wild tomato. I did find some images that had similar looking plants they had named "wild tomatoes". Had no idea there was such a mountain plant but apparently they grow pretty high up in elevation. Are these them? I dunno'  We'll just have to wait and see if the little balls/fruit turn red? Interesting looking plant none the less......thanks for trying to help id it and post up updates if someone finds out for sure what the thing is.   -------------------- CP-Owner/Administrator
