Little Rocket (Ligularia stenocephala)

These brighten up the damp shaded corner of my garden. Can anyone identify them please?
dark green leaves, black stems and flowers at a height of 3 feet or more

Possibly a ligularia stenocephala or a different ligularia?
Regardless, it's very pretty.

I have had this plant in my garden for about 4 years and is one of my favorites.
