It's growing in our flower bed, and I would like to know if it's something we should keep.

Thanks so much!

Looks like Virginia Creeper to me and while I like to look at it in nature (turns color in the fall)...I do NOT like it in my yard. My neighbor has other ideas so I am ALWAYS pulling it out :-)

I was going to say it might be pachysandra. Is it all over the place low to the ground?

Its low to the ground, and spreading quickly. The place it planted itself is prone to erosion, so as long as it isn't toxic I think we'll keep it for now. Off to google! Thanks!
