hi all, does anyone know what this is? I've been waiting for some sign of flower for ages.  Do I dig it up or keep it ?

    Hello JAC51

    From what I can make out it looks like  Phygelius ; if in full sunshine it should have flowered by now .

    Thanks Paul B3 I think you're right. I do seem to remember buying something like that in flower last year.  Didn't realise it would get so big and unflowery! 

    ....and josusa47 I know the slippers are ugly but they keep my tootsies warm when padding around in the garden!

    thanks guys

    Big, yes, but I've seen some very flowery ones

    Phygelius can tend to run if unchecked , but are very easily pulled from where you don't want them .
