#mondayblues not sure what this plant is, but left alone will multiply like a weed.

Asiatic Dayflower is an edible weed that you can quickly stir fry/blanch the leaves... I find the stems too tough so I normally just eat the young leaves or shoots.

Thanks @niching and @saco I'm constantly pulling these like weeds. Now I know what they are I think I'm going to designate a spot for them to grow.
