It looks very similar to the giant fleece flower except the pictures I am seeing on line donÕt have the striking red stems. Reminds me of Japanese knotweed which I have seen growing around here (North Carolina Mountains) with red stems but the pictures online only show green stems. Curious.

Check out giant fleece flower (Persicaria alpina syn. Persicaria polymorpha) and see if you have a match. Best wishes! https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:%27Persicaria_polymorpha%27_Giant_fleeceflower_in_the_West_Garden,_Hatfield_House,_Hertfordshire,_England.jpg
