    Looking again - it looks just like my white drumstick primula  :)
    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....



    I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...

    I don't think it's a foxglove either, I grew loads this year and they didn't look like that. I somehow managed to get a pepper plant this year from seeds and I never bought any veg seeds!

    I don’t think it’s that either.

    If you ate any peppers and chucked the seeds in your compost they may well have sprouted - much like toms do.  Even avocados given a bit of warmth.

    I think it could be Evening Primrose, Oenothera biennis. Google images/leaves.

    My Oenthera look nothing like that- leaves are too big and tough I think but who knows ?

    Are they prickly? Perhaps a clump of self seeded teasels?

    I’d go with @Asarum.
    It’s self seeded there.
