I am retired and enjoy pottering in the garden. I love the wildlife that visits. I don't like pulling anything up so my garden is unorganised like me

Linaria purpurea 'Canon Went'

Yes it's Purple Toadflax. It's a garden plant but does seed around a lot and you often see it in semi wild situations as a garden escape.

Yep, I agree with @tiggrx and @22pilgrim - definitely Linaria, I have the same. I've linked it to the database for you 👍🏼

Oh darn, I thought it was a generic tag - it's linked to a variety called Canon Went. Don't worry - it's gonna give you the right plant tasks anyway so it should be ok.
