Does look like Leafy Spurge. It is certainly some sort of Euphorbia.
It is a somewhat attractive plant. However North America, it is a weed;
an aggressive, invasive alien. And it doesn't play well with other plants.
It is suspected of allelopathy. (That means it releases chemicals that are
toxic to other plants).
