The Cosmos looks similar (see picture of Cosmos below) but I'm not sure. Thanks for your reply. Attachments:   |

I recalled my cosmos foliage as being more fern like and pulled up a few volunteers.  Then my seeds came up and some of my cosmos have leaves that look a lot like that. If you can give them enough time to blossom, perhaps we will know soon!

Unfortunately Evonne, we are never going to know. It was not my plant. I was trying to help someone to ID it. She was growing tomatoes in the pot and this thug came along and was crowding out the tomato. She pulled them all out.

My second guess would be common ragweed. |

That was my first guess but your guess of Cosmos looked too good to be ignored. |

Since I have all the stuff available, I thought some photos would help. Cosmos with the more fern-like foliage Cosmos with wider leaves Common ragweed by the side of the road Attachments:    |

And the winner is "Cosmos with wider leaves." |

Great! It was really a large, lush plant! For me the key was the difference at the very leaf tip. |
