Solanum is the first thing that crossed my mind when I saw it, but Solanums have five petals.

Lol, I kept seeing 5 petals but thought that must vary. It sure does look like a Nightshade though! Do all the species have 5 petals?

There may be some with more or less, but everyone that I have seen a picture of has 5 petals. I agree with you it certainly does look like some type of nightshade.
