What are these yellow wildflowers growing in SE Wisconsin?

Question

I'm pretty sure I self seeded these, but don't remember what they are. I'm guessing the yellow flowers are Black Eyed Susans.

one identification per question, can you ask a second question with the second photo? — kevinskio, Sep 30 '18 at 12:07

The top flower is a Helianthus, possibly H. decapetalus. Helianthus tend to "run" underground and therefore not the greatest plants in a non-meadow garden. H. decapetalus is better behaved then most, though,

The plant is definitely NOT a Rudbeckia.

I'm also pretty sure that I know the second plant, but that needs to be in a separate question. :) – Jurp Sep 30 '18 at 13:59
I was expecting you. :) Does the latin name of the second plant begin with L? – Aleksandar M Sep 30 '18 at 22:18
@Aleksander - If I'm right, it begins with an M. – Jurp Oct 01 '18 at 00:23
