    Specimen 1

    Mystery vine. I thought it was Echinocystis lobata, but now I'm thinking maybe Sicyos angulatus. I didn't take notes and couldn't find reproductive parts, but I'm hoping the picture will suffice. See pic 1.

    Specimen 2

    Mystery fabaceae. Sorry for the lack of notes. See pics 2 and 3.

    Specimen 3
    Mystery herb. About 5 feet tall. See pics 4 and 5

    Specimen 4
    Mystery Asteraceae. See pic 6.

    Fourth looks like Lactuca canadensis.

    tipularia is referring to the third plant (the fourth image).

    The second plant, perhaps Glycyrrhiza lepidota?

    Doubtful, as there are apparently no Glycyrrhiza in my state.

    Second plant could be Galega officinalis. USDA shows it being found close to Michigan, but does not mean it is not in Michigan.
