  I think it looks like Green Alkanet - Pentaglottis sempervirens. Bees love it but it can be a bit of a nuisance in gardens.

  Agree...Pentaglottis sempervirens...Green alkanet.
  Pretty...yes....BUT It is a complete thug and will take over huge areas if it is happy.

  I have it in my garden osckar.field and I keep it in check. I think it is really pretty and I love the fact that it attracts bees.
