There is this plant coming up in my wildflower area and as far as I can tell I've only one..
It looks like a fern although it isn't, and it smells strongly like sage. The leaflets are serrated.
Any guesses?
Thanks

| Vera - could it be tansy? Do a google image search on tansy and you'll get plenty of examples. V. |

| Vera - it was your comment about the smell that tipped me off. Tansy has a very distinct scent to the foliage. V. |
