Oh, that’s an oxalis. And I think you have a suitable for home variation, so congrats on your bonus house plant lol

Yeah just looking online now, thinking it’s a oxalis triangularis
Should I just leave it to do its thing? Or repot

Get it out before it takes over the whole pot. They’re annoying as hell, and they grow a lot under the surface in a concentric pattern.

I would remove it but pot it up in its own pot.

There are variegated oxalis, too. I may have bought one for $80. I realized after getting it that I essentially paid a week’s worth of groceries for a glorified weed- but she’s MY glorified weed. (pic from the seller before he shipped it to me lol)
but that is kne beautiful yucca plant i didnt realise that they could get like that from such a small pot

Mine likes way too much water. Maybe I’m doing something wrong though

Oxalis likes it moister than the yucca will

Looks like Oxalis (probably triangularis). Cute hitchhiker! You can leave it, won’t hurt the yucca, but it may compete a bit. If it spreads too much, gently lift and pot it separately.
