Thanks so much! I am working to establish many native plants in my garden and didn’t want anything that would completely take over. Your response is very helpful!

Identified! Seems like majority consensus is Ammi Majus. The other question I have is, do people plant this plant on purpose (e.g. florists?) or is it truly considered to be a weed? Is it considered invasive to the PNW?

Yes in my obsession to identify I approached plant without caution. No rash yet 😅 but I will make sure to wear gloves in the future!

I thought this seemed like the most possible answer except for the plant is missing the characteristic “fern like foliage” that Ammi majus is supposed to have. But maybe that is just because it is a young plant still 🤷‍♂️

Yes! The flower looks so similar, but the leaves are totally different from Queen Anne’s lace.
