What is this? It is not something I planted and it has suddenly started popping up in my garden! If it is a desirable plant how do I tend it? If it is undesirable how do I eradicate it? The stem is slightly woody (vs a green stem) and the plants are about 5-8 inches tall right now. They seem to be propagating fairly quickly.

Hello Beth!
I apologize for the delay in my response! My first thought about this plant is possibly a mulberry but I can't be sure. Would you be able to send a few additional pictures of the roots and the garden? Feel free to send them to my email: <personal data hidden>. I look forward to hearing from you!
