Sure looks like Scutellaria altissima  to me. Loved by bees and butterflies. A perennial up here. And as it happens I just got one of these too! At least the leaf structure and flower shape are identical. Flowers are blue? I was excited to get mine - came from a friends garden - she has the most interesting and unusual stuff in a huge garden and can rhyme off the correct botanical name of everything in it. 
Gotta love friends who share. I have another friend who is in the process of moving, and she has dug up and moved about 250 plants at least half of which she especially treasures because they came from friends.
