Perhaps it has Aster Yellows?

Is it one stem from basal foliage Is it from a bush? How long ago was this pic taken? At first guess, I thought it might be a hydrangea just about to bloom but for me that would have been back in July. Leaves look a bit different though.

An echinacea with Aster Yellows.

Here's a general article from MObot. The photos aren't too close to the OP's plant.
