  • I think it may be pokeweed, in which case it's poisonous when eaten. If you have pets or small children, you may want to keep them away from it in case I'm correct.

It looks like Houttuynia Cordata, or Chameleon Plant. (Also known by other names.) Used in Eastern medicine but considered an invasive plant by many who have it in their gardens.
