$Petasites japonicus, also known as giant butterbur, is an herbaceous perennial plant in the family Asteraceae. It is native to Japan, where the spring growth is used as a vegetable. It has also been introduced to southern British Columbia by Japanese immigrants.\nLike other Petasites species, the plant contains pyrrolizidine alkaloids which have been associated with cumulative damage to the liver and tumor formation. The concentration of potentially hepatotoxic pyrrolizidine alkaloids are below the detection limits in modern butterbur extracts (source Wikipedia).\n\nThe Picture is made in an Ornamental Garden in the Northern Part of the Netherlands in Spring of 2018.$
