Question
Saw this plant on a hike at Rampart Reservoir in Colorado. It was on a trail above the lake in partial sunlight,near pine trees and aspen. The leaves have a velvety texture arranged in whorls and there is a cone shaped bud on top.
Answer
Dear vrh, my region of expertise is northeastern North America. That written, your plant looks like a species of mullein (genus Verbascum). You might try searching for more information in that genus to find out what your plant is.
