Pineapple Weed - Matricaria discoidea AKA wild chamomile

Pineappleweed, also commonly known as wild chamomile, is often found along pathways where humans walk, and it likes to grow in compact soil. When you crush the flowering head of pineapple weed, it smells like pineapple.

Identification of Pineapple-Weed

Pineappleweed is an annual herb that grows 10 to 30 cm tall. It's leaves are highly dissected and almost fern-like and very delicate in appearance. The pineapple weed flowers are ray-less cones that are yellowy green in colour, and they smell like pineapple. The leaves resemble the leaves of chamomile, and pineapple-weed is a relative of chamomile.
