Monocarpic Monster

Sunshine please! Having kept this plant through two Manchester winters it deserves some sun. Bees are attracted to the flowers which are related to borage.
The achium pininana germinated in a small gap on my patio. They are monocarpic, grow for two/three years produce flowers and seeds then die.
Mine is only 1•8 meters, somewhat under height as winters are chilly here unlike it’s home land the Canary Islands.
