My first thought was Sunflower (Helianthus) but then I got to thinking it looks a lot like Rudbeckia. R. hirta is a Maryland native and I found this article saying that R. hirta var. pulcherrima is the one found all over the state: https://extension.umd.edu/hgic...

Or possibly Rudbeckia fulgida? Our database info states to 24 inches in height but other places say 36" and Wikipedia says to 47 inches tall.
