Vancouver, BC, Canada. I don't know what kind of plant this is, but, it is huge - standing over eight feet high, with leaves three to four feet across. Enjoy!

Thought at first sight that it was a species of the Giant Hogweed, but see now that Bob is right It's a Gunnera Manicata, known as Giant Rhubarb indeed.
Fine and impressive post Thad.

The reason why the sun sets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB
Wow - this is even bigger than the variety we found up in the mountains on Kauai - I took a picture of my husband next to it just to prove to people how enormous the plant and leaves were. Really nice one Thad.

I would call it elephant ears. Such a great big display of giant leaves. Well done shot too.

Some people have Gurus, I have my camera. Through the cam lenses I have learnt to deeply perceive life, not only to see, but to look at all expressions of nature, becoming able to read the poetry of the flowers, receiving the embrace of the trees and flying above the clouds without wings! - Susie Sun
You could make a really huge salad out of that! LOL. Excellent color and clarity, Thad. Well done.

I think your title does the leaves size justice. A nice capture and composition, Thad. Nice details and colours in the shot.

The difference between a bad artist and a good one is: the bad artist seems to copy a great deal; the good one really does. ~William Blake
