It's about three feet tall, with dark red flowers where the leaves originate on the stem.

Might be a variety of motherwort. If so, it's in the mint family so the leaves would have a noticeable odor when crushed.

Looks like houndstounge.

I wonder if tap dancers walk into a room, look at the floor, and think, I'd tap that. I wonder about things.....

Thanks! That's it!

The reason I asked is I found some caterpillars on them. Turns out they are likely snowberry clearwing moth caterpillars.
