Could be Cleome? The growth tips look like it, are the flowers pink or white?

Let's wait till the buds open....Hello Nadia. Do you chop wood? I seem to recognise an axe handle there against the wall.

It is not Cleome as I said before it is CHELONE OBLIQUA.

Or it could be a var. of monarda. Chelone o. is called turtlehead and is a native here in N.A. but the buds look like beebalm. Monarda gives off a wonderful smell and is used in the flavouring of teas...most notably Earl Grey and Lady Grey.
