I think it is a compass plant.These are the exact leaves I see. I seem
to recall seeing what looked like a sunflower in that corner. Also called rosinweed and pilot plant.

Amongst them are these ... well I think giant dandelions. Out of curiosity I went searching for a type that grows this huge. They look a lot like dandelions only they are about 2 feet round plants, and about 18' tall. It is growing a tight cluster of flower buds on a single stem--about a dozen buds forming. Kind of a dandelion on steroids. Also the leaves branch out, but they otherwise look like a giant dandelion.
