Looks as though it might be a wild fennel. Does it taste like a black jelly bean?
 
No at first it has dill kind of taste. Ive researched all the wild dill, fennel, and everthing I cant think of. None have the furry or hairy stem.
 
It almost surely is one of the umbilifferas. It could be a carrot gone to seed or a Queen Annes lace which is a wild type carrot. I don't know of any umbelliferas that aren't edible.
 
It does look like wild carrot but I dont think this plant flowers. Its a bushy green plant almost like a shrub. It was growing in an old duck roost. Partly in the shade.
 
I'm still undecided but its twin lives in the plant identification thread from 5/4/11. If you look up that thread from noobiechickenlady it will give you some possible suspects.:)
 
Definitely Dog fennel or Summer Cedar

Dog fennel
Eupatorium capillifolium
