...or comfrey?

Thank you. I'll see if it flowers and then post another pic.

I reckon foxglove too, its typical of the way the flower develops.

I thought foxgloves were bi-annual, this plant looks in remarkably good condition for a plant that age > my comfrey on the other hand looks just like this although its just about to flower.

The leaves look a bit smooth for foxglove. My vote is with comfrey, or another member of the Borage Family.

Thank you. I think foxgloves are poisonous so I shall dig it up.
