Red Goosefoot Chenopodium rubrum
Occassional.
Found growing on a manure heap. Approx 80cms tall. A bushy plant. A first for me.
It looked good enough to eat so I looked it up online. Yes it is edible raw or cooked as Spinach. If you want to eat wild leaves never take many leaves from the same plant.
