I think I planted something in this spot... pretty sure... maybe. But I don't remember what. Anyone know? Thank you!

Salvia farinacea

Thanks! That's surely it. Sounds like a very easy and pretty salvia.

I'm beginning to wonder how it got there, though! I was thinking maybe I planted some sort of prepackaged root there, but this doesn't seem like a plant that could grow from a root in a baggy from Lowes, which is all I would have put there . . . So I'm not sure where it came from!

Thank you for your help!

It looks like a S. farenacea 'Victoria' . Can't be sure. There are so many varieties of them..

I'd agree it's Victoria - one of my favourites. It's an annual for me and I don't usually see blooms till late June.
