This has grown unexpectedly along with something else, I'm toying between it being a weed or a herb/flower, I'm thinking it looks too nice for it to be a weed - can anyone please confirm whether I should pot it up or dump it ? Thanks

It could be Chickweed

On looking at photos online, I think you're right Esther. Given it's name then I assume it really is a weed. Off to the dump it goes.

Thanks Grindle, I don't like the thought of it being a weed and invasive, though it is quite compact and pretty. Bin or not to bin?

The flower buds do look like they're going to open up like chickweed though.

I would bin it, if it's that one, the seed explodes everywhere

I would agree with chickweed. It`s a harmless annual weed.

I'd say Euphorbia too. We've had this question before, unfortunately. Not a nice weed to have in your garden.

Going by Steve`s images the leaves are the wrong shape for it to be Euphorbia.
