Frederick County Maryland

Expert Response

This looks like cut-leaved coneflower (Rudbeckia laciniata). They are native plants that produce yellow flowers. They grow aggressively by rhizomes. It is up to you whether to keep them or not. If you like them, it is fine to keep them. https://www.marylandbiodiversity.com/viewSpecies.php?species=4377
