Don't think I've ever yet seen it wild though. Looks pretty.
Forgot to say that the German name means "king's candle".

Well, I think it's a "Koenigskerze" in German, which should give you a good laugh at least!
Am dithering over English name, but suspect it starts with a V.
Further help any minute now from other GOYers I'm sure.
Verbascum or something?
