The leaves and stems aren't visible in your photo but the blooms remind me of Eupatorium. Compare to the native Eupatorium perfoliatum.

Might also be Snakeroot. A look at the leaves on the stem ought to say which.

I'll move this over to the Plant ID Forum where it will get more views. Hopefully someone familiar with Pennsylvania plants will recognize it!
