        Hi @Snorky85 ,
        Check out Lychnis Coronaria. I grow a lot of these and they look the same. The leaves are slightly silvery and hairy . When they die they go yellow like the one in your photo.

              Ah great-I love them. Going to plant them around the front border which is more “cottage garden” like so will go well there :)
