White Oak Studio Designs on Jun 26, 2014I think it looks like a Chaste Tree/Vitex. Usually grown in the South, though I have two in SW MI. They just die back each winter and start over in the spring.Helpful Reply

Christina Shettle-Charney on Jun 26, 2014I checked in some of my books and it looks kind of like Ligularia. There are lots of leaf shapes and sizes, different blooms. The photo below shows one that is close to the leaf pattern.Helpful Reply

Katrina Smalley on Sep 02, 2014Christina Shettle-Charney, I just stumbled across your pic and just in case you haven't i.d. it this plant is a Rudbeckia Lacinata-extremely invasive via its seeds, I mean in sidewalk cracks and under bushes invasive but if you deadhead it should be fine.Helpful Reply

Myrna Engle on Sep 02, 2014All rudbeckia have a fuzzy texture to the leaf usually more so on the back side. Leaf would have some degree of firmness thought not rigid. After thinking about the fact that someone gave you a transplant, I wonder if what you have is just a weed that came with the transplant. My choice of Frost Weed is wrong. It has changed over the last 5 weeks as I'm sure your mystery plant has also. My latest thought is ' Man High Ragweed ". Will you post what it looks like now? I'm hooked on this stranger in your garden.Helpful Reply

Katrina Smalley on Sep 08, 2014Myrna, I just spotted a 2 footer of this under my bushes! thought I had it all gone but there that little invasive plant is and its identical to Christinas' pic-and I spotted some a block away in a flowerbed so its being spread far and wide in the village lol. The plant gets 4 to 6 feet tall and the leaves look much like a marijuana leaf.Helpful Reply

Ruth Lightcap on Sep 02, 2016I forget the technical name for it but it has also been know as the Outhouse Plant because it was used to hide outhouses. It has a bright yellow flower that blooms in the summer. It is very invasive. Once the flowers die the stalks are very ugly. My husband loves the plant but I hate it and yes it is a weed.Helpful Reply
