    I have a wild vine growing that I can't identify. It grows very long and straight. it has leaves that ressemble maple leaves. It has small white flowers. The flowers have six points with a tiny yellow center. The flowers grow in cluster that resemble a cone. The have a sweet smell. Any help would be great!

    Could it be a grape vine (Vitus sp.)?

    After some more searching I believe it is a wild cucumber.

    Echinocystis fits the description.
