Name That Plant!

Dublin Botanic Mystery

I'm trying to help a friend ID this plant photographed at a botanical garden in Dublin. Haven't had any luck, so I'm hoping someone here recognizes it and can point me in the right direction. Not the best photo for ID, so I realize definitive ID may not be possible from the shot.... Hoping to at least get some place to start searching =)

Thank you in advance!

Looks like LionÃ¢ÂÂs Ears (Leonotis leonurus). Available from a number of nurseries for summer color...not hardy, but good in pots.

I've heard of the plant as Lion's Tail, lol.

It belongs to the same family as Monarda.
