    Answer

    Dear stapow93, the plant in the image appears to be a species of mullein (genus Verbascum), but without knowing what part of the world you come from, I can't really help further (location is really important for helping us narrow down the potential choices your plant may be). If you would like to email this information to gobotany@newenglandwild.org, I will try to help you further. Thank you for sharing your image.
