Hello,
newbie here
i have this growing amongst my decorative pebbles and block paving, it’s sticky to the touch, I pull it out, it grows back, I have tried Resolva weed killer, but no good results.
Any help and advice gladly appreciated.

Would love to see clear sharp pics to show the leaves.
Is this in UK or are you by any chance in USA?
If USA it might be Ficus pumila...creeping fig.

I should have said, I am in UK, in Kent to be precise
thanks
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
thanks for your reply

Keep pulling it as it reappears, it will eventually weaken and die. Be careful though, euphorbia sap is an irritant.
It is Euphorbia maculata....common name spotted spurge.
