Does anyone have clue to the identity of this perenial?

That looks like agastache (which I believe is pronounced ag-a-STAH-kee, although I've heard it pronounced a-GAS-ta-KEE). It's native in PA, which is probably why it's doing so well. Great plant -- there are some varieties of it that have a beautiful licorice scent too.
It looks like a pink flowering Hosta.
It looks like a lilac to me and it is beautiful. We can't grow old-fashioned lilacs here, unfortunately, due to lack of winter cold and if that is what you have...ENJOY. Lilacs do have those heart-shaped leaves. My Kansas grandmother had huge long hedges of them along a fence row leading to the barn. They were gorgeous...she also had peacocks everywhere. Now I am homesick for *the good old days.*
Looks like lilac to me also.
Yep a lilac
It does look like a lilac, but the fall bloom time doesn't work.
My lilacs are in bloom now. I am in zone 7a.
Whatever it is, it's fabulous. It is not a lilac, blooming time is wrong as well as the foliage. It's not a hosta, either, for the same reasons. Not many plants are spectacular all season, so enjoy your Fall bloomer.
PS. I don't think it's an agastache, the leaves are not right and the plant blooms pretty much all season.
Maybe an Allegheny foamflower? The Allegheny foamflower has heart-shaped leaves and dainty white flowers in spring. Lovely ground cover for shade. This diminutive plant spreads in the garden and grows to under 12" tall. The tiny flowers are produced in racemes that stand above the low-growing foliage. The foliage turns a bronze color in fall and remains throughout the winter. Use Allegheny foamflower as a ground cover in a shaded area of the garden.
What do the flowers SMELL like?
I just noticed the leaves look to have spots are serrated, local AG center might be able to tell you or local garden club.
flowers look like wild asters>
Send a picture to Wayside gardens.com or another online nursery to inform you
Definitely NOT a lilac. If you rub the leaves and they smell (lovely smell, I can't even describe it ) ,it's definitely agastache.
Haven't made it to the garden center yet, but I found another potential online. Apparently there are multiple types of Asters (who knew!). Heart-shaped Asters pictures look pretty close š and blooming time matches too. Hopefully, the experts will know. I may also try Wayside Garden online suggestion.
it is beautiful.
Possibly a hydrangea? Leaves look very much like one I have.
