Cynara cardunculus
An architectural plant in the top border. I like the colour and shape of the leaves. There's Verbena bonariensis round it to soften it.

This is lovely with the Verbena boniariensis - again, being so far north ours are nowhere near as tall as that yet, never mind coming into flower. Goes really well with the Cardoon here - yet another combination of yours I am going to have to pinch.
