Hello.
Can I get some plant IDs of these plants in my back yard please.
I think they are wild lettuce, dandelion & a squash?
Thank you!

#1 has dandelion in it, its not the purple-ish one in front, its actually the one behind the yellow flower in the picture.
#2 is not wild lettuce
#3 is mallow.
also in the first photo down on the bottom left along with the clover there looks to be chickweed, a delicious weed and when dried makes a healthy tea for you.

Someone suggested that photo #2 could be culantro or sawtooth coriander. If it is you can tell. Break a leaf and it should smell like cilantro. The seed head is very thorny.
If it is culantro it has culinary and medicinal uses. Below is a link to culantro. It does have pictures.

I would caution against eating any wild weed until the id is confirmed. You could take a sample to your local Master Gardener site for id. Id is best if you have a flower, seed and leaf that is fresh.
