I found this plant hiding away in the corner of my garden, so i have potted it up, and am hoping its not a weed, any idea`s anyone ?

Need to see what develops, but those leaves look rather like the Mickelmas Daisies that are comming through in our garden

This plant is getting rather tall now, i`m sure i have been nurturing a weed for the last few weeks

Could well be a Michaelmas Daisy

They weren't very well named then, it's not quite Michaelmas yet

I will keep it going until it flowers, but i`m still betting on it being a weed

Well i might have to eat my words, because i have had a look through Google at Helianthus grosseserratus, and it does look quite similar, i think i`m going to need a bigger pot

I was just putting some bird seed out when i remembered that i had tried to cultivate some of them last year, so i think this maybe a striped sunflower seed ? ...
