16042011GS1 from near Panchkula for ID
The herb about 80-120 cm tall, alternate, ovate-oblong leaves, somewhat lobed, hastate at base, up to 15 cm long; heads radiate, yellow about 6-9 cm across.
Could it be Gaillardia x grandiflora ‘Mesa Yellow’ having run wild? , or some thing else! or some some species of Vicoa or Pulicaria.
Was found in an open wasteland along roadside, near Panchkula, photographed on April 9, 2011.
