    I have a stranger that came in my flower bed ?? 5 ft tall soft stem about 1 inch around .stem is kinda fuzzy feeling with white spots.Huge awesome green leaves 12 inches by 14 inches shape like a sunflower leaf but way bigger.I am going to go now and put it in photo bucket so I can come back and send you picture .I hope I can get seeds for some next year but It has no flower?? It is not elephant ears but reminds me of it by size not shape though will be back .Thanks Elaine

    Wow, it does sound like an impressive plant! Better ID it before propagating it, don't want to end up with another kudzu, lol!
