Hi it's so wet & miserable here up North, thought I' give people something to ponder on! Been taking photos when out walking dog & 2 is from plant show & 5 a friends house plant she doesn't know what to do with. Help with ID much appreciated. It's lashing it down now but sun is supposed to come out tomorrow, I hope!

i don't think the leaves on 2 are Salvia patens leaves but that's one of the few salvias I grow so don't recognise this one.
I had trouble with the linaria, I always have a problem with flowers cut and lying down
In the sticks near Peterborough
It's great getting answers so quickly! I saw the Salvia in a young gardeners show garden @ Harrogate but forgot to write down name and I love the colours of leaves & flowers, really want one!
Sorry about the Linaria, tons of the stuff round here.
Maybe Salvia guaranitica ?
Just google Salvia patens and don't think it's that, the leaves were really bright green.
the leaves look quite yellow, are they or is the light?
In the sticks near Peterborough
I remember them being lime greenish which I suppose could be seen as on the yellow spectrum
It was very sunny and bright light unlike outside right now!
It's funny you can google a plant and think it's that one then a different image, same plant don't look like it. Just did that with Salvia guaranitica and thought yes then another pic -no!
