furry stemmed plant - flower or weed

[LunarRose]

We are totally novice gardeners in need of help

we have just uncovered a part of the garden from shingle and weed stopped fabric stuff. We've planted it up, but out of the ground is popping up this thick stalked furry plant. When the first one popped out I dug as deep as I could and accidently cut the stem weeded it out but now 3 more have appeared in a different part of the flower bed. previous owner was at one time an avid gardener so we are kinda used to odd things popping up

Having accidentally weeded out poppies already need advice as to what this might be and to weed out or not to weed out??

Leave it to flower and the see what it is.My frst guess though would be a pasque Flower[google it and see whther the leaves are the same].

Lamb's Ears?

oo either of those could be it... would either have one long stem going very deep into the ground??

I don't know about lamb's ears, unfortunately. It's been a while since I had some.

Oriental poppies have deep roots and thick hairy stems-and are very pretty!.

Could it be a mullein (wild variety of verbascum)? Big rosette of very furry grey green leaves, deep root and very tall flower spike in the summer with little yellow flowers up it. Quite pretty, but they do self seed around and like disturbed ground.

Could it be the dreaded alkanet/

I was going to suggest alkanet too. Blue flowers, v hairy, v persistent, v deep roots and pops up everywhere. Our garden was infested when we first moved in. Difficult to dig out and sort of yuckily succulent when you do...

It's not tree of heaven is it? Awful thing. Shoots are fury and sligtly red tinged. Here as tree

Hmm thanks for the replys... just in case we've dug them out where we can but a couple we didn't get deep enough....

It could be brambles

Comfrey?
