72 LITTLE WANDERERS. 
There is a tall leafy kind that grows sometimes two 
feet high and is topped with numerous branches of small 
white flowers. As the flower stem lengthens, the flowers 
continue to unfold at the tip, while lower down are the 
many little seed pods, shaped like little tennis racquets. 
The prettiest enchanter's nightshade, however, is a 
little fairy that sometimes grows on decaying logs. It 
is often not more than three or four inches high and 
ends in a branch of pretty little white flowers with 
bright red calyx lobes. After these dainty blossoms 
come the little hook-haired, racquet-shaped seed pods. 
Look for enchanter's nightshade the next time you 
go to the woods in the summer time. Below is a pic- 
ture of the large one.
