Verbascum?

Is this some sort of Verbascum?







it looks a lot like this - which I am pretty sure is the Verbascum chaixii which Shiney kindly propagated for me:

 

Agree if the leaves are quite glossy and not the usual grey green then it's Chaixii. If the leaves are your pretty typical Verbascum type then I'm not so sure. I had Chaixii in a previous garden and remember the leaves being not nearly so thick and didn't have that furry feel to them. I found it to be a sort lived perennial which did self seed a bit but not to the annoying stage! Quite a pretty plant in flower.

 

Trouble is I have no record of having sown Verbascum chaixii (from bought seed) and these plants are neatly planted in a grid (and too far from the parent), so must have been me that planted them. But I haven't got any other Verbascum in my seed inventory ... so maybe its just an administrative snafu?!!

I'll compare the leaves close-up, thanks for that

 

Maybe I divided them up already then ... I wish I could remember what I may have forgotten!!

 

Yes I agree with above, I have a lovely patch of them from one original donated by my dad. I took my oh out to see them yesterday, swarming with honeybees, the most we have seen this year. One of my favs
