    Looks like a fine specimen of Great Plantain - Plantago major. I have seen a purple leaved variety offered for sale as a garden plant, but it's basically a weed (or wild flower, if you prefer).

    I'm pretty sure it is also a weed Steve. I pull it up in my garden anyway!
    Save those poppy heads though! :thumb:
