        Leaves don't look shiny enough for petasites. It does look hollyhocky though

            My first thought is hollyhock but I’m not 100%
            … is @Angie Jones (nut) about … she’s really good on perennials.

                Hollyhock is in the mallow family and it does have that look about it.
