Question
I found this in my backyard in Rhode Island and I believe it is curly dock. Can you confirm?
Answer
Dear jphonor, unfortunately, I can't confirm this for you. There are 18 species of dock in New England and I need a habit shot (the entire plant) and the mature fruit (your plant isn't quite ready yet) to be able to tell you the species name with confidence. That all written, your plant is likely Rumex crispus (curly dock). Best wishes.
