Welcome to the forums @Juliedawn000 :) I just asked the Oracle (@zigs and he said that it is commonly known as ''fat hen''
It belongs to the chenopodiacea family and is related to quinoa. The leaves can be eaten (like spinach) and you can use the seeds in your muesli.

I hope you also got plenty of tomato plants :giggle:

Yep, looks very much like Fat Hen :) Also known as Dung Weed due to its habit of growing on middens.

Seeds everywhere.
