Looks like a foxglove

I thought it had too many leaves for a foxglove. Could it possibly be a Verbascum?

Some of the foxgloves do have a lot of leaves - I have a digitalis parviflora that has tons of leaves.

I could see verbascum (mullein) in my mind but couldn't get the name out. Both come into those plants (with hollyhocks and delphinium) that take up a lot of space with not particularly attractive leaves. (Though I'm sure someone else will defend the leaves)

I agree with you there Urbanite about the amount of leaves v flowers. Mind you delphiniums leaves are quite attractive and I have Verbascum but it's tucked behind something else to hide the amount of leaves!
