Hi Paul, thank very much for your reply. I have, just now, googled the names you gave and they're most definitely the same plants I have in my garden.
The cornflower is, apparently, a "proper" flower, and I've spent the afternoon pulling it up! The second is referred to as a "herb". I shall have to research this one further. I like herbs but this one doesn't impress me much.

No 1 Centaurea montana (perennial Cornflower)
No 2 Possibly Stachys sylvatica (Wood Woundwort) ?

Amazing what the wind brings to our gardens!
Again, many thanks.
I think you're right Paul
Would be surer if they they weren't limp and sad

Sorry, Nut. I'm a hopeless photographer and the sun has been pretty hot today!
Growing is always best, camera skills not so important.
Hedge Woundwort is a great plant for bees.
