Question
I apologize ahead of time as this is not a New England sighting, it is a Florida sighting, but can find no help here in identifying this prolific and annoying plant. It has long thin beans, tiny white blooms, five clover like leaves. When pulled from the ground it has a distinct, pungent odor. It is similar to the sickle pod Senna, Black Medic and several other invasive species in Florida, but I can not find this plant anywhere online; the mottling on leaves is herbicide burn.
Answer
Dear Carol1967, we are happy to entertain all plant questions, though with this one, the images are very washed out and I can't see details well enough to offer you any kind of answer. You might want to contact folks at Florida State University (email: herbarium@bio.fsu.edu) who could direct you to someone who would have an answer for you. Best wishes.
