Notes:

Inflorescence appears spiked (calyxes attach directly to the axis at the basal junction of leaves). When petals fall, the very long stigma remains attached to the calyx. Main stem appears to have secondary branches only, and these, like the calyxes, spring from the main stem at leaf nodes. Leaves, branches are attached oppositely and alternate sets seem to be 90 degrees rotated. Leaves near the base of the plant are 4″ long x 1 1/2″ wide, lanceolate, and with one or two twinned notches.

    Maybe a species of the False foxglove (Aureolaria), this might be downy yellow false foxglove (Auerolaria vigirnia) (?). Best wishes! https://www.marylandbiodiversity.com/viewSpecies.php?species=2756
