    This summer, at least 6 of these plants emerged in garden and we let them grow until we could be sure they were not weeds. They grew long stems with long pointed leaves and started blooming these blossoms all up the stems about the middle of August. They are now in full bloom and the stems have lowered to the ground under heavy rains recently. Have searched web for id unsuccessfully. Anyone have a clue as to what this plant is and if it is an annual or just an infrequent visitor to Connecticut ? I have other pix if helpful.

    Thanks
    Tony M
