Can anyone identify this flower? It's my neighbor's and it will be partially hanging over my new flower bed because I live in a Townhouse (we're close). If anyone knows what it is I'd love to know to find out more about it and how it seeds (so it's not dropping seed in my flowers!) Thanks everyone!  -  -

Appears to be Bittersweet Nightshade : Solanum dulcamara. Check out the images to compare with your pix.

Whichever kind of Solanum it turns out to be, I think I remember reading that all parts of the plants are poisonous. Beware if you have small children or pets that might be fascinated with the berries.

Thanks for the information! I pulled it up because I'm 99.9% sure that it was just a weed growing in her yard now. She also had tons of other tall weeds that I had already pulled, but I left that one thinking it was planted on purpose. I'm almost positive it wasn't now though as it was also in a very strange place to have been planted. Thanks again!
