My friend just moved into a new home and we have been trying to figure out what kind of plant this is. It's grown very rapidly since she has moved in. It has flowers that only open at night and these spiky balls that just started growing on it.

Hello !
The plant is a Datura. Although the strenght of the toxins it contains depends on its age and condition of growth, consider all parts as extremely toxic, the seeds and the flowers being the most poisonous parts of the plant. It is an annual plant or a short live plant at the best. As it seems from the picture you have posted that the plant is reachable from the public space, I think that it should be cut back to its foot to do not run any risk.
Thanks, also known in the US as Jimsons weed.
Or Jamestown weed. Highly toxic. LSD x100%
This appears to be a datura plant.. The plant has very pretty flowers but unfortunately is quite poisonous.
Looks like an Angel Trumpet to me. They only flower at night.
How do you get rid of a datura plant safely I've one in my garden in Wiltshire with four quite big spikey funny looking things growing on it but the white flowers have stopped producing
Looks like Angel's Trumpet to me....lol...it's both!! For other plants with the name "Angel's trumpet", see Angel's trumpet.
All species of Datura are poisonous, especially their seeds and flowers.
Some South American plants formerly thought of as Datura are now treated as belonging to the distinct genus Brugmansia[1] (Brugmansia differs from Datura in that it is woody, making shrubs or small trees, and it has pendulous flowers, rather than erect ones). Other related genera include Hyoscyamus and Atropa.
wow that looks like a toothed danna
