    Looks like a Phlomis, assuming it's that one you are referring to.
    How can you lie there and think of England
    When you don't even know who's in the team

    S.Yorkshire/Derbyshire border

    I agree, it looks like Phlomis russeliana.
    Doncaster, South Yorkshire. Soil type: sandy, well-drained

    No that is not the Phlomis it has more of soft furry leaf. Sorry not sure what your buds are. Will get back if I have any ideas.

    Could even be an iris. Can you show the whole plant, maybe put a piece of white card behind it to isolate it.
