I went to North Wales yesterday and saw a lovely pink wildflower growing
near the sea. It was tall, bright pink, a bit like a verbena bonariensis,
but pinker and not as flat, the leaves are quite thick and fleshy. Can
anyone tell me the name of this plant? Thanks

Red Valerian - Centranthus ruber naturalised on all the walls etc around N. Wales and Anglesey coast.

Not a great photo but it should confirm it for you.
