Echiums are a huge genius..please which specific Echium is this ?

[@Burncoose]

HI Ya they are Echium pininana (pinnifolium) which are single-stemmed biennials

[@Nosy-gunt-ye]

I have been calling them snow towers for years 😂

[@stephenp1131986]

I feel that given how mild this winter has been, Echium pininana is surviving everywhere this winter in the British Isles, this may mean it becomes a bit of a pest soon. Like you said once it flowers it will get anywhere and everywhere.

How about this year? 🤣

[@stephenp1131986]

@@wiltshiregardener8038 as it turns out Echium pininana create a vast seed bank so last year seed set will be popping up for many years to come!
