Is this a weed?

[Farrowandballachee]

I planted some nice plants last year and next doors paddling pool drained into our border so most of them went all mushy and died a death. I cleared the beds earlier this year. However this thing is growing quite tall now. Do I remove it or see what flowers?

Hard to tell.

A weed is a plant growing where it is not wanted.

Can you attach a photo?

Hahaha the photo would help!!

That's a peony.

I think...

Looks like a peony to me too. I'll be jealous if yours flowers - can't get a flower on mine for anything!

Ah that's amazing!

Yep peony is what I thought too.
