    That plant is a wild datura. It produces white blossoms shaped like morning glory blooms followed by round prickly seed pods. All parts of the plant are toxic, but it is a pretty wildflower. I allow one to grow in my back yard. The plant dies down in the winter and regrows in the spring.

    Those things that you didn’t know what they are that had those prickly little balls on them and the blooms are called moon flowers. They only bloom at night. They’re beautiful and the flowers are huge. And inside those prickly little things are the seeds that will drop once that ball dries out and that’s how they reproduce and grow new plants the next year

    The neighborhood is much improved because of your wprk on this lawn. Those seed pods and the developing flower looks like what is known commonly as a moon flower. Not the vine, but the shrub like plant. They bloom only starting in the evening and close come day time. If I am right, they are very fragrant and humming bird moths love them. There is a botanical name I can't remember, (only that it starts with a "D"). Glad you left it to bloom.

    Everyone MAKE A WILL. If someone dies and doesn't have a will, the property goes into probate - in some states in can take 2 YEARS for probate to clear and heirs to be finalized...and the property still has to be maintained, utilities/home insurance paid for, etc. during that time that it's not "owned" by a new family member. It can't be sold until it clears probate either. So if you don't have family in the area where you live, the odds are they can't personally maintain the property after you die and would have to HIRE people to do so - which they may not be able to afford.
    So - keep things simple - MAKE A WILL, have it notarized (free at local banks in most areas), and keep it filed with your other personal records (birth certificate, social security card, banking info, etc.) in a firesafe location - like a safety deposit box or safe. So that all notifications can be made quickly and everything can transfer cleanly.
