I dont know, becasue whatever I say it would be a big direction !
So lets write this - it is a common plant and if I tell you what it is, you might get angry for not arriving to it!
If this is not enough I give 2nd direction

1) The plant can grow 100 - 150 cm high
2) Difficult to pull it out from the soil as it has a developped root!
3) This but esp other members of this family attract many insect pollinators.
The 3rd direction would make life more easier !!
