Unknown plant received at ETRU

Tyler, TX(Zone 8a)

This is a leftover plant I picked up at the ETRU. It didn't have a tag and I have no idea what it is. So far, it has not produced a bloom. Can anyone help with an ID? I have 2 other views of it, but I can't figure out how to post more than 1 picture in a post.

And this is a little closer view of the plant. Sorry, I didn't realize it was sidewise.

I think its a dahlia (spelling??) there was a lot of them leftover on the side walk in smaller pots after the RU.. Im not postive but thats what it looks like to me..

Thanks blkraven. That might be what it is. It hasn't bloomed yet so I can't be sure, but the leaves look right.

Thought you guys might like to know that this plant turned out to be a China Aster (Callistephus chinensis). The picture attached is of its first bloom. It is now covered in pretty solid pink flowers. I was just too lazy to get up and take another picture.
