| | | Soft ferny looking leaves for ID;-)
Came across a lot of this in a hedge bottom today. Lovely and soft to touch and pretty to look at! 
What is it?....or what do the leaves belong to? 
Thanks,
Tracey

It's certainly not a Fern or a Horsetail.
I'm not 100% certain, but the leaves look like Wild Caraway (Carum carvi) to me.
Regards
Mike.

It is Yarrow (Achillea millefolium) |

Yarrow? I'd have never thought it was that  Thanks Tiggrx. I might go back and get a few better photos if I can. The wind kept blowing it around yesterday when I tried to take the pic

I think it was just the angle of the leaves which made it look like a horsetail |

I agree with it being Yarrow, hedge bottom is one of its favoured spots as well | | |
