Your location might help.

I said my location... South Western Ontario, near the Michigan border!!! Lol ;)

Or it could be a native Aster. Some are nice, some quite weedy.

One of the later goldenrods, perhaps speciosa. :Showy goldenrod" in some sources.

peren.all, I thought that too. I looked at some online but couldn't find one that looked like that. I once had some of those weedy tall types. they had much larger lance shaped leaves at the base with smaller, different types of leaves on the branched parts, at first they didn't look like asters because the plants I collect them from had much smaller leaves on top. I got rid of them, in garden soil they were tall and weedy looking, much larger than out in the country.

Thank you guys so much... I dumped mixed wildflower seeds there in that general location last year and nothing came of it... I'm now thinking it just might be goldenrod... If it flowers I'll be sure to let you know!!! Again, thank you so much!!!

'S'no problem, Candie. FWIW, goldenrods and asters are very closely-related to each other. And where one grows, so do the others it seems. I've used Solidago speciosa-that's showy goldenrod-in some of my landscape plantings to good effect. Speciosa has got to be one of the latest of all the GRs to bloom.

Let us know when it blooms. I'd like to see what it turns out to be.
