Weed or hollyhock

in Talkback
Morning guys lovely day here
hope its the same with you
Can anyone take a look at this and say if it's a weed or maybe a hollyhock I've not planted one in this bed .

The bed has been a little neglected over the winter

Weed, garlic mustard.
I agree - get it out before it flowers and sets seed
a hollyhock would have snail trails all over what was left of the leaves by now
Ohoops ive gone and potted one up I found on the edge of the path
Thanks both I will learn (if I've got enough years left
)
on the plus side they are edible, just start with a small bit as some people can be a tad allergic.
It's on the compost now
I didn't try any but did have a smell and couldn't detect garlic
