Wild Cucumber

Echinocystis lobata

Description:

The dried up fruits were similar to Luffa AKA loofah (what some people use for a body scrubber), with the hollow center and the veiny remnants. The flowers were a bit fuzzy looking, and the vines took over large areas as you can see in the last photo.

Habitat:

Near a parking lot for a beach.

Notes:

A native plant to much of North America
