I think jprat001 is right, this is Phlomis fruticosa: http://www.gardenersworld.com/plants/phlomis-fruticosa/2449.html

Pretty sure the family is correct, it also looks like it's a species of Leonotis. Thanks for the suggestions!! :) Here's a site for the family, I'm still searching for an exact match. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lamiaceae

I agree with the family, maybe a species of Leonotis? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leonotis
