    Close up of the flowers would help.

    Could be a Helianthus or maybe a Rudbeckia.

    The central disc makes it more like a Rudbeckia, rather than a Heliantus, IMO.

    That close up does look more like a Helianthus, now I am confused, nothing new there.

    Hosta - think you've got it with H. Miss Mellish image  The height is right as well.
