Echium Pininana

I didn't plant this, or the smaller one growing behind. Apparently next year they will have a tall spike of blue flowers, then die. Unfortunately they're in my garden, so their chances are not good.

PoJT I appear to have managed both trips across The Atlantic with minimal jet-lag!
LOL They are looking great at the moment!

As you did not plan it I bet it will thrive.

Maybe they are presents from your birds. It is a beautiful plant.

From what I have heard getting them through the winter in colder climates can be a challenge so don't be too hard on yourself if it doesn't make it but be ready to celebrate if it does.
