    Reference my previous (Sodaspop) question where you want more pictures of the leaves. 2 more attached. (Original photos have closer, detailed views of leaves)

    Answer

    Dear sodaspop, good afternoon. Thank you for getting additional images. I consulted a companion of mine who was able to get us pointed in the right direction. You have likely photographed a species of Ligularia (possibly Ligularia dentata or a hybrid with that species). These are members of the composite family related to genera such as Senecio (ragwort) and Packera (groundsel). Best wishes.
