A reply from Dr. Ron:
"Plant #4 - not familiar to me by info available, particularly lack of side-view and sepals.

I would like to request that clear sideviews showing the outer tube of the bloom , sepals and fruit (at any and all stages) be included when this is available as all of the aforementioned parts are important for Convolvulaceae identification.

regards,

Ron"

To me I. aquatica looks a better match, especially leaves significantly longer than broad and basal lobes rather than being simply cordate.

Looking at the big and wider size of leaf I feel it could be I. rubens. 
Thank you.
