Hey Digi, where are you? It could make a difference. Also, a shot of the
leaves and the height....

It looks rather like Jupiter's Beard aka Red Valerian. Centranthus
ruber.
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?

Hi Cheryl

Thank you for your reply.

I am in Northern Ireland

I just took a quick shot of the plant. I was wondering if it was a weed or a plant. Not seen one of these before and my books don't help.

I can't get another shot for a few days as I have to pop back to the old house to pick up the rest of my stuff.

Sorry.

Any help ion the ID would be most helpful.

Thank you. :)

You can see my Red Valerian for comparison.

You will want to keep the old flowers deadheaded as it can produce
a profusion of seedlings.
It's a great plant to attract Butterflies!

I had a second thought - could it be one of the "Feelings" phlox - the red
cultivar?
