I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.
If I crush the leaves it smells kinda like peas.
I think this is not from something I planted.
For reference I’m in Australia and there’s been lots of rain in the last months, and I collected this from a place that is very humid soil and no sun at all ever.
Not necessarily one of the two Veronica the bot named, but I do think it’s a Veronica.
The round leaves on the lower parts of the stem are what lead to the false identification as a Thymus. But these can also occur on Veronica, depending on the species, and are more likely on the lower parts of the stem as we see in your image.
On the uppermost part of the highest stem (left side of the picture, pointing towards your hand), you can see the typical lobe shapes of many Veronica species’ leaves, one type with broad lobes and one type with more pointy shapes.
Compare to [www.blumeninschwaben.de/…/P1980308_x.jpg](these broad-lobed leaves) in V. hederifolia…
As for the species, I couldn’t say, Veronica is not easy for me^^
