    Wondering if that is the woodland plant which I know as Lords and Ladies? :scratch:

    Are those it's flower heads appearing? (Top right off centre? Round heads with a pointy top?)

    Although the white leaf markings are rather sparse compared to most I've seen, I think it is an Arum. Once those flower heads open it will be a more positive ID.

      The 2nd one looks like the stem and leaves of wallflowers...I have some looking exactly like that.

      My only reservation is that the mottled stem looks the wrong colour. You may have an unusual strain there - please keep us updated.

      I thought stems looked a good match...there is a natural variation.
      Photo's can change colours sometimes.
      The leaves look very washed out colour wise... I am sure in real life they look much healthier.
