    I have attached some photos of what I'm trying to identify. Your input would be a big help. My guess is since its growing so good that its a weed...lol. but people i've asked say they have never seen it before.

    Caper Spurge Euphorbia lathyris. A weed, can be invasive. Also has toxic sap that can cause skin burns, so handle with care (and preferably with gloves) when removing it.
