Cephalaria gigantica, the giant yellow scabious, grows to around 6ft and needed no staking in my Northumberland garden (which was windy).
I have a 6ft tall thalictrum Elin which stands by itself, as does Helianthus Lemon Queen and Joe-Pye weed (latin name escapes me at the moment). I also have clematis growing up obelisks to give height at the back of the border.
Edit - JP weed = Eupatorium (thankyou Mr Google)
