Can someone tell me what this is? I don't remember it being there last year. It looks like my grape leaves, but this time of the year they are no where near that big.
Garlic mustard?

Its a weed.
Doesn't look like a weed to me. Looks like grape leaves. Is it growing near the grape vine? Is it possible a vine rooted and started a new plant?
Page 19 says it's garlic mustard:

I have a grapevine and the leaves aren't that big yet.
Garlic Mustard.
It's a very invasive weed, control it or watch it spread like wildfire.

I have it springing up in both my flower gardens and it is spreading like crazy. I can't seem to get rid of it. I'm SO frustrated. I'd like to know how to get it gone for good, too.
Strawberries. See them?
It looks like one of the coral bells plants. I have one that has reddish leaves and I found two of these on my property with the green leaves. They have small flowers and grow really well in sand/gravel (as I do not have a landscaped "yard").
I think it is 'wild' grapevine. It is all over the place at my old farmhouse, but i have never seen a grape on it.
its not a plant its a weed
IT'S NOT GRAPE VINE THAT'S FOR SURE. IT MIGHT SOME KIND OF NEDDLE PLANT?
Try pouring boiling water at the base of the plant. It seems to work for all the weeds I have tried it on so far.
It is definitely garlic mustard. Very invasive. Pull gently and slowly at the base when the ground is damp. You need to get the root. It is easy to pull out. It produces little black seeds on the long stalks and they drop very early when the stalks dry up. It took over my woods when I was pregnant and had my little one. In two years it nearly covered the ground. By pulling every spring I got it under control. It will shade your other plants and squeeze them out. Don't delay. It is controllable. It likes shade. Just like in woods or a nice flower garden. Our local botanical garden has a weedout every April. Don't despair. It is a perennial too. It will come up in larger clumps as it ages. Even easier to weed. But watch for little patches of sprouting seeds and scrape them out. The leaves look just like big plants. First year plants re hard to pull because they are so spindly. Gee, does it sound like I'm an expert? After 18 years I am. I was just pulling some today. Good luck.
It's definitely garlic mustard. Get rid of it!
