Question
I'm trying to idntify this plant that appeared in one of my raised beds that I grew some veggies and herbs in last year in MA.
Answer
Dear Janis, your plant looks like Artemisia vulgaris (common wormword), an aromatic species (when the leaves are crushed) that is common to disturbed soils. The undersides of the leaves should be very pale with gray-white hairs (I simply cannot see this feature in the photograph you've taken). You can confirm the identification by looking for those pale undersurfaces of the leaves. Best wishes.
