Looks like yarrow, the wild kind.

Thanks journey,
I thought it might be but need to have a second opinion on it.
When I was pulling weeds out behind the house I saw in the flower bed.

it looks like yarrow I have it growing in my garden...

I find it growing here and there- wild yarrow, for sure. I leave it along my fence line, but it does spread out into the grass...

Well the definition of a weed is -
A plant that is not valued where it is growing and is usually of vigorous growth.

Since Yarrow does have uses then I wouldn't call it any more a "weed" than the volunteer tomatoes or wild flowers.

Oh yeah, I am yanking 'weeds' like cone flower and arizona blanket flowers out of beds they don't belong in all the time! LOL (Pretty or not, they gotta go!)

Kind of like the common thought that dandelions are weeds...it depends on who's viewing them, personally I love dandelions.

I think a lawn of yellow dandelions is so pretty! And they smell nice, too. If only they didn't turn into those ugly puffballs....
