  Need a photo.

  It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....
  
  
  
  I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...

  Not hostas. It rings a bell, but I can't remember - name won't come to me

  The leaf shape didn’t loom at all right for a Hosta. Someone local said it was, I’ve searched for a name but can’t find it. The leave veins are nothing like hostas.

  Some of them have fantastic leaf colour in the autumn/winter. 😊

  They maintained their colour over the winter, but only one from about 15 plants is flowering.
