Notes:

This low growing plant took over an abandonded flower pot. The photo was taken up close so more detail could be shown. The leaves and buds on the plant are actually really tiny. I’d like to know what it is. Is it a keeper or not?

    Maybe a species in the Artillery genus. I can’t tell for certain which one is yours. I’m guessing this could be rockweed/artillery plant (Pilea microphylla). Check it out and see if you have a match. “Is it a keeper or not” so sorry, I don’t have any experience with this plant. These included links below might help with your decision. In my own humble gardening experiences, I’m wary of anything that plants itself in a prolific way, eventually it would be more works to keep it in check.
