Hello, I have a weed in my garden which I am struggling to identify. I
would
like to know if anyone can be of assistance. It has a linear
cotyldeon leaf, a
red stem up to the cotyledon leaf and then green up to
true leaves and white
roots (There are no hairs on the stem). Its true
leaves are of a heart shape
with a serated hedge. Please see attached
photo. Thanks, Joe

Looks like a tree seedling... any mature trees nearby with those
leaves?

It's definitely of a maple tree (Acer pseudoplatanus).
