Weed or is it?

[zazen999]

Just found this at our college gardens...it's my last day here so if I could find out what it is today that would be grand

Any ideas?

Could it be a seedling Hogweed? I've just looked at mine and the leaves start off roundish then grow shapelier! They have that purplish tint to the stems.

How about Coltsfoot ?

Sounds good Bren!!
I've just found a good weed leaf identification site and Coltsfoot looks a good match Pictures of Common Weed Leaves

My students say thank you! But we won't be keeping it. It's now been dug up and composted
