Welcome to Hallson's!
It looks like Whirlwind. :D

Some of the leaves look pretty rumpled between the center and edge. If they really are, then you could have
Golden Meadows. It will be very bright in spring and then become less so, with the center turning a light green.
Whirlwind can change colors as well, so the corrugated, ruffled edges would help you decide whether it's Whirlwind
or Golden Meadows.

I was thinking Whirlwind, too.

I'm not so sure. My 'Whirlwind' at least, is nowhere near as twisted.

It is a mans hand, think it is too big for Whirlwind, Golden Meadows is a possibillity- it have yellow to white center and Whirlwind can go fro´m rather green to white
