What in the world is this plant? Is it weed I need to chop down? : gardening

My radio alarm clock woke me this morning to an interesting article about one of the worlds rarest plants.
The Middlemist’s Red is currently in bloom at Chiswick House hot house and is one of only two in the world. Curious, I took a look at the plant on the website.
And I thought to myself “Hang on! That looks like the one we have at Gnomepants Manor”
The one we have is not in bloom yet as it is growing out doors. But here are a few pictures I took last year.
I’m probably very wrong and the camellia I have is probably some common variety…but still…
According to the packet of seeds this plant
Is lettuce.
Now, there is some lettuce in this part of the veg patch but I'm buggered if that is lettuce. It has furry leaves with a prickly texture. Can anyone identify it for me?
