    Looks like a dock leaf (Rumex obtusifolius) to me. If it started growing by itself it almost certainly is. When we were children we used them to cure stinging nettle stings by rubbing on the affected area.

    Yes it started growing by itself.

    Thank you for your help.

    Now I can just remove it as it seems to be useless...
