Can anyone tell me what this is? It turned up in a pot and I.cant remember planting it!

It would help if the flowers were in focus.

Possibly one of the perennial lobelias, like Hadspen purple.  or Lobelia x  gerardii

Any chance of a photo of the flowers?

Q."what is it?"  A. Out of focus.  tee hee. Easily done.
Some sort of echium?

Echium vulgare - Viper’s Bugloss?

That's the one I was trying ( but failing ) to remember.

I think Figetbones got it right. It looks like a Lobelia on the second lot of photos, but I think this one might be Lobelia Siphilitica, Blue Cardinal Flower.
