This tall plant grows on my balcony and is super hardy. What is this?
Thank you.

Are those little blooms fluffy like small dandelions?

Treeme! May we have a little info as to where you are located? Feel free to update it on your profile so that we know where the plant is growing/what zone you are in

Hi James,

I am from the Netherlands in Europe. Time zone +1. It is now late summer here. This plant is wind hardy and has a strong stem as it is windy at the balcony.

Hi Jmorth,

Yes, the flowers are fluffy like dandelions.

It's possibly wild lettace. Lactura?

I'm not sure what species grow in the Netherlands but it looks more like a species of Conyza to me.

Teeme,
how about Conyza canadensis?
In this Dutch link you'll find a video determination of the plant..

Hi Horntoad and Bonitin,

Thank you very much. I do think it's a conyza canadensis.
