I'll have to look at the picture on a better monitor. It's kinda dark but those leaves look oval to me.

Well, they looked pointed at the end to me... which makes 'em kinda ovate but with a point which would put 'em in the lance shape for classification. Or maybe elliptical but I think they're too pointy for elliptical.

P.S. What I can't tell is if they're palmates with 3 leaves or 5 or 6. Can't tell that from the photo.

Of course, that information does me not much good unless I find the big book.

Also, we can't see the stem. I found one plant - I dunno which book now even - that only had a verbal description with no picture - the description fit these flowers and leaves, there were several species but it said all had stems that are coarse and hairy. LOL - I do not even have a clue at this point what that was because I decided what little I could see of the stem was not coarse and hairy.
