Looks as if it might be Salvia Patens, Dot's Delight
I'd definitely save seeds from it, you will find 2 seeds at the base of
every old flower, after the flower has fallen and just left the bract.
One problem with salvia seed is that they don't stay viable for very
long. Many people will sow then as soon as they are gathered and over
winter the plants frost free.
