    So, I had a pot with dirt but no plant in it outside on my porch. Sometime this spring I noticed a little sapling sprouting out of the middle of the pot. I paid it little heed and let it go until I moved to my new place. I couldn't bring myself to trow it out and now I'm just curious as to what it is... I did look online for leaf charts and things, but to no avail. Any help would be appreciated!

    Oh, I live in the mountains of Western North Carolina.

    Maple, might be Acer negundo.

    Does look like a Box Elder even now.
