# This plant is all over my garden outside. Is it Chinese Elm…

_Posted by Henken on 2025-05-31_

This plant is all over my garden outside. Is it Chinese Elm seedlings? Can't get definitive answer from the ID app or Google. See how there's rounded edges and etched edges. Any help and erradication tips appreciated.

Many plants have rounded edges on their first set of leaves, because the seed splits in half to become the leaves. (Google cotyledons) Anyway you probably will have a much easier time identifying this plant after it grows a little more.
