Salvia lyrata
This is a common herbaceous wildflower in the eastern United States. The deeply lobed basal leaves gives the plant its common name. The flowers appear in whorls in the spring.
Fields, open woods.
I'm posting this poor quality picture mostly to show the leaves that I didn't photograph in a later spotting of the flowers.
