In my area I would guess milkweed--but I don't have a sense of scale from your photo

Hi Izzie, It would be milkweed in Oregon and in the Midwest. They stand above the snow in the winter in the midwest. I've 'frozen' a few fingers photographing them there.

Re: Need help in ID -ing this weed (?)
Thanks Susan. I did a bit of gardening again yesterday and found some more. I do not have milkweed in my garden and I do not know how they look like, but I keep finding them around ... I bought some butterfly and hummingbird friendly plants the other day and I was asking the clerk at the store if they have milkweed and she laughed at my question. Oh well...
