This is in my friends garden, I have not actually seen it myself, only in the pictures! Any ideas?

    Datura stramonium. The heat this year seems to have germinated a lot of long dormant seeds.  It is also known as Jimson weed. Poisonous seeds.

    Datura stramonium is what the seed heads remind me of.

    Thank you very much, neither of us had seen it before! It must be the hot weather as stated, apparently it had not been seen in the garden before. Much appreciated!

    Hmmmm......why does everyone seem to have this 'weed' except me ? I gladly welcome any member of the Solanaceae into my garden !
    John , it's also known as Thornapple .
