These plants are shorter with more upright, denser, flower-spikes. The leaves have black markings. I think this is Persicaria maculata. Please advise.

I think you are talking of Persicaria maculata S.F.Gray synonym for Persicaria lapathifolia subsp. lapathifolia (also available in efi) as per Catalogue of Life & not Persicaria maculata (Raf.) A. Löve & D. Löve (not available in efi).
I also think matches with images in efi at Persicaria lapathifolia Ochrea looks different from Flora of North America illustration of Persicaria lapathifolia (L.) S. F. Gray. You may be right about this being Persicaria maculosa Gray as per .
