    I love this plant but I just can't remember it's name! It reminds me of my Auntie's garden in Kent which I used to visit on occasion with my Nan as a child. It's a bit of a weed and I seem to remember that it grows from a rhizome with strap shaped leaves similar to an Iris

    I know it's a simple one :heehee:
