Would someone kindly identify this weed/plant for me.

It is about 18" tall, has leaves very similar to those of a foxglove

and
at first sight it could easily be mistaken for a foxglove. Its

flowers
are almost identical to those of a Lithodora 'Heavenly Blue'.

It has woody roots which are fairly deep and clump forming and is

very
invasive, particularly by self seeding.

Thanks,
Emrys Davies.


All I'm getting is a pic of Lithodora Heavenly Blue, Emrys.

That is all I intended you to receive with that link so that you have
some idea of what the flowers of the mystery plant are like.
