----------------------------------------------------

This first plant came up in a few pots. The most notable one was that which I photographed. Oddly enough it attracted some odd sort of scale or other parasite.

Unknown Plant 1

-----------------------------------------------------

This second plant I have a suspicion about, but I cannot be sure.

Unknown Plant 2

-----------------------------------------------------

This next plant I am clueless about.

Unknown Plant 3

-----------------------------------------------------

This plant is something I first noticed out in the countryside. I have had no luck in identifying it. One thing that you can't see in the photos is that the leaves when young often have a reddish blotch close to the stem. The flowers have 4 tiny white petals. When going to seed, the seedpod bursts open, often sending the seed a foot or more.

Unknown Plant 4.1

Unknown Plant 4.2

-----------------------------------------------------

This next plant is obviously a type of mint. Unfortunately, it refused to go to flower, so I was unable to ID it. The white spots on the leaves are spider-mite damage, in case anyone notices it.

Unknown Mint 5

-----------------------------------------------------

The next plant I suspect to be Wild Geranium (Geranium maculatum), but I need a confirmation.

Unknown Plant 6

-----------------------------------------------------

This last plant occasionally pops up in my pots. I have no idea what it is and have never seen it flower yet.

Unknown Plant 7

-----------------------------------------------------

Thanks in advance for any help.

From the look of things, I am going to have to wait until I get a flowering specimen of #2 before I can ID it. If it is a wild geranium, it must be an odd variety of the wild version. The leaves are similar, but not the same.

I don't think #3 is Pokeweed, but if it isn't identified, I won't miss it anyway.

Thanks for giving me something to go on with #4.

The #5 Mint plant remains a mystery.

Plant #6 would seem to be Wild Geranium (Geranium maculatum).

Plant #7 remains a mystery.

Odd that a cultivar should just pop up out in the countryside. Someone must have planted it once.

However, I found a very small group of Dove's Foot Geranium growing close to a cemetery and noted that it was quite beautiful. I didn't think that I had collected any plants or seeds, but apparently I was wrong.

Until you gave a name and I looked it up, I had no idea what the pink flower I had found was called.

That just leaves 1 and 7 to ID. I have now changed my mind on #3 and am starting to agree that it is most likely Pokeweed. I was thrown off by the fact that it's stem was turning red while it was so young, which it shouldn't normally.
