Hello. My neighbour unfortunately passed away recently. She has new gorgeous red flowers in some pots outdoors. I hadn't seen them the year before. We'd made plans to visit a garden centre but never made it. I had planned to ask her about the flowers. I took a quick picture over the fence while they're still there, does anyone know what they are please? They're quite tall and very pretty and bright red. I'm in the Uk if it helps. I'd love to get some myself to remind me of her. (apologies for the terrible quality, her family aren't there right now so I don't feel I can trespass) I do know she planted for bees and butterflies, like me, so I'm wondering if it's some sort of verbena? But can't find anything like it online. Thanks for looking.

Growth habit resembles Geum. Possibly not this specific variety, but...
