I'm pretty sure I  bought this a couple  of years ago. The leaves don't  smell.

In London. Keen but lazy.

    It looks a bit like Tree spinach

    Knowledge is knowing that a tomato is a fruit.
    Wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad.

    You're spot on @Pete.8. Where in earth did that come form? I certainly didn't buy it.

    This looks very like a seedling weed we get here.  Thanks for the identification.

    I thought it was Fat Hen as I have lots in my garden - the leaves were right, but the red didn't match.
    So I googled Chenopodium (latin name for Fat Hen) and up came Tree spinach.
    So it's part of the same family as Fat Hen
