    There’s a few things that look like that ... Sweet Rocket Hesperis Matronalis is the first one that came to mind.

    I think it's a Digitalis species. Possibly lutea?

    Thanks again @Dovefromabove. Should I keep it or take out?

    Thankyou @Asarum. Interestingly I planted digitalis purpurea there a few years ago but they didn’t seem to come back

    I have D. lutea and D. purpurea close together in my garden and now have a hybrid lutea which is flushed with pink!

    @Asarum sounds like a lovely combination 😁

    I agree with D. lutea.
    He calls her the chocolate girl
    Cause he thinks she melts when he touches her
    She knows she's the chocolate girl
    Cause she's broken up and swallowed
    And wrapped in bits of silver

    They're probably right  :)  
    That's not something I grow ...
