    Campanula persicifolia probably.

    I agree with @Rubytoo  ... Looks like the Campanula persicifolia that selfseeds around this garden.

    Can it be divided/ moved easily?

    Actually I think there are two different plants.  The top one looks like Goldenrod ant the bottom one like the Campanula, so we could all be right!

    I love Golden rod. I give it the Chelsea chop and it makes big statement clumps of yellow flowers, good for cutting in late summer. Also drought tolerant for me and a Self seeder

    I'm glad I finally managed to get rid of goldenrod in my garden. A true invader it was!

    If you don’t want it to spread cut it down before the seeds develop ... they drift in the breeze like thistledown.
