It looks rather like Jupiter's Beard aka Red Valerian. Centranthus
ruber.
You can see my Red Valerian for comparison.

Without leaf closeup as Cheryl says, it is difficult to say for sure,
but the
foliage looks almost right from what I can see.
Toni, the flowers don't look quite right for Pentas, which have very
precise
5 petalled "stars" if I remember correctly?
