    I dug around a bit. Wish I could have found it for you - not too many plants with a simple round leaf. It has a lot of potential to create interest in the garden.

    not sure Michael. B. thunbergii is the closest to this shape that I could find; a bit off to my eye as this one is a bit more oval and some of these have a divet at the tip.

    Leaves are less than one inch in diameter.
    The plant is about 1,5 inch in height, and than come the leaves from the top.

    Cotinus has very distinct vein pattern. Not like this one.

    Does it grow wild in your area? In the garden? In some pot?

    Or milky sap?

    Wild guess: some obscure Euphorbia?

    I tried to make better photo, but it is not possible. There are 4 small plants in a pot. The biggest leaf is about 1 inch in diameter, other are smaller. It has normal plant ("green") scent, and no milky sap.

    Hm, not Eucalyptus, not Euphorbia. This is a real puzzle!

    You might need to wait for flowers. Please post them here when you see some.

    Also likely not Brassicaceae or Fabaceae (fairly distinguishable scents, usually). Not finding anything with the specific epithet reniforme or reniformis either.

    @buldozerko, are you still around? Did you ever find out what this plant is? Did you keep it? How big did it get? Would you show us what it turned out to look like?

    Kudos to you @Michael F. My first thought was that it could be related to Miners' Lettuce. Hats off to you!
