I am retired and enjoy pottering in the garden. I love the wildlife that visits. I don't like pulling anything up so my garden is unorganised like me

Help me identify this plant. I know I planted a penstemen here but I dont think this is it 🤔🤔. Any ideas please ?
The leaves look more primula type🤔
It's Melittis melissophyllum https://www.claireaustin-hardyplants.co.uk/products/melittis-melissophyllum
Thanks @tash74 I think it is. Don't remember buying it so another pressie from the birds lol 😂. @kathy thank you x
Apparently it is a native species - and a very pretty one too. I have seen it for sale a couple of times at specialist nurseries. Lucky you! Maybe good to try and save some seed!
Slightly unfortunate common name, I see the original plant encyclopedia entry was from @tiggrx, still miss his pictures and knowledge. 😔
Yes, I miss Aaron. He was a wealth of knowledge. I always tagged him if I wanted to know anything. Not been on here for ages due to ill health but hubby has done well looking after garden for me. I just boss him around now lol 👍
It's good to see you back! Good on you hubby - they need a bit (or a lot) of direction sometimes!
