    If it's a salvia the leaves will be scented. Have you tried crushing one and smelling it?
    Dordogne and Norfolk. Clay in Dordogne, sandy in Norfolk.

    It reminds me a little of a Nepeta (catmint).

    I wondered if it was Anaphalis but I have only posted this as a last resort.

    @Copperdog, do you think it could be yellow loosestrife?

    I not sure if the leaves are quite right though.
