My mom has found these and asked me if they're weeds, I haven't a clue! Anyone have any suggestions? Thanks

    Could be a foxglove / digitalis

    Agree with foxglove.

    A trowel in the hand is worth a thousand lost under a bush.

    Looks like foxglove to me. Let us know when it flowers who was right! image

    Foxglove or Verbascum. Remember Foxglove (Digitalis) is poisonous.

    I'm not convinced by digitalis or verbascum.

    The one on the left looks decidedly salvia to me. 



    In the sticks near Peterborough

    Just wait until it flowers - I always try it this way.

    You are right Brenda Scott, normally foxglove leaves are furrier, but I have just looked in the garden: I have a foxglove with no "furry" at all.....it's a "Foxglove Albino"!

    I will let you know when it flowers! I know she did have some foxgloves at one point, but it could be anything because it's a bit of a wildlife garden!
