Hello,

I'm fairly sure that your mystery plant is silverleaf nightshade. (Poisonous!)

Yup that's what it is - it's extremely difficult to get rid of - much like bindweed in it's rooting habits - deep and makes new plants from broken roots. It's also covered in needle sharp hairs - they go through double thickness leather gloves like nothing was there.
I hate 'em...

I like those things! I have had one in my backyard for quite a few years - I didn't know what it was either. I think they're pretty!
