This is probably an easy on for you. Plant is about 3 feet tall.

chamomile

It's in the genus Aster (sensu lato). There's probably a couple of hunderd species in the genus. Do a goolgle search for Aster images and you could narrow it down to one of several species that look like this.

[Guest]

thanks! now i know what it is, too- got that stuff all over the front yard the past couple of years. is it good for anything? will chickens or rabbits eat it? it's not medicinal, as far as i know.

Are you certain it's fleabane? From looking at both photos I think the leaves are different between the two. We have something similar growing here, don't know what it is.

petalless? ferny /mossy leaves(divided) =pineapple weed matricaria sp.

 

[Cyngbaeld]

Chuck's picture does look like rough fleabane. The other picture is annual fleabane.

 

[shorty'smom]

not chamomile. This is an Erigeron sp. It is called fleabane because people used to put it under their rugs to help keep fleas away. I don't know if it works.
