    :thumbsup: Yes I agree, I think it is probably Epilobium monta'num or better known as the Broadleaved Willow-herb.. It gets to about 18-24" high.. It spreads by suckers & runners underground once established.. I think they are pretty & let mine flower then as soon as they have flowered I pill them up..!! You do not want them seeding everywhere.. :WINK1: :D
