Notes:
These are growing in my backyard where they get partial to full sun. I haven’t gotten much closer yet, but the stalks appear hairy and the leaves sort of resemble mint plants.

I thought it might be a type of balm, but I couldn’t find one with flowers that look the same ~ all other pictures have flowers that are more delicate looking (?). Maybe these are in the early stage of the bloom?
