imageHi, could anyone help identify this plant. I've scoured the net but found nothing. I did not plant this, just found it growing so decided to leave it.

thanks in advance.

    It's Caper spurge, a wild type of euphorbia (E. lathyris.)  They appear from nowhere, probably as a result of bird droppings.

    Watch the white milky sap if you break a stem or decide to remove it as it causes a photo-sensitive reaction on the skin.

    A trowel in the hand is worth a thousand lost under a bush.
