It looks like hairy bittercress but bigger than the ones in my garden.0

It does look like hairy bittercress but its really big and the leaves are thickish and fleshy. Its about 14 inch diameter.0

It looks like Land Cress, sometimes called American Land Cress, but they can't be blamed for everything.
I grow it as a watercress substitute and it's certainly peppery, but inclined to bolt if you forget to water. Yours is large, so you probably haven't forgotten.0 -
