This has come up in my garden and I was just wondering what it is. My wife wants to know if it's edible before I nuke it....lol.

Creeping sorrel. Its an absolute bastard. Get on top of it as soon as possible. If you hand weed you wanna make sure you get all the underground runners. Not sure about spray rates. Even if it is edible you wouldn't want it in your garden beds, it takes over and is really hard to get out from under other plants.
Well blacktop, your wife was right, it is actually edible. Id be pulling it out though.

Seems no-one on the internet calls it creeping sorrel but me. Common names are sheep sorrel or red sorrel.
anyone?

Looks possibly like a variety of Loropetalum but I haven't convinced myself yet.
yep, you're right Paul, was sent the photo but the colour threw me, not up to speed with new cultivars anymore

Thought it could be an octopus tree, but it doesn't look quite right.
