Sorry Jaclyn, I'm not familiar with this plant though some here may be
Looks like a Datura. I think they can be quite boisterous in the US, Jaclyn.
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
might be Datura stramonium, thorn apple.
In the sticks near Peterborough
Agree, Datura stramonium, known as Jimsonweed in the US.
