I planted several of these last year and now they are flowering i can't  remember what they are, not sure if i grew them from seed or if they were plugs.

They are between 5 - 6 ft tall  the flowers are pink and fade to white, and they have an amazing perfume. Can anyone advise what they are please.

    It does indeed look like Valeriana. I have V. phu aurea which is very similar in flower, but begins the year with nice yellow foliage.
