a hellebore. Probably argutifolius/corsicus.
Verdun will know for sure
In the sticks near Peterborough
Well knock me over with a feather is it really nut, i had no idea it was a hellebore, that's a nice surprise, thanks nut i can go look it up now...
Did it have any flowers?
In the sticks near Peterborough
The OH says it has white flowers
Yes,they would be white/cream/ greenish. It's not the species that has all those fancy colour schemes. Lovely plant though
In the sticks near Peterborough
Cheers nut, i like it for it's round compact mound forming habit, though it is getting a bit big for it's allocated space...
everything does Percy and I ever leave enough space

Percy, I think you can divide those if they're too big, as long as you get a decent root on the clump. Verdun will know the best time to do it. They do get quite big.
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
As Nut says it looks very like argutifolius, which ised to be known as corsicus, but they have lime green flowers, so maybe not.
When you don't even know who's in the team
S.Yorkshire/Derbyshire border
Cheers guys good news about dividing it, if you's see Verdun before me can you's direct him over here please..
Doc the white flowers are not gospel, to quote the OH "I am pretty sure they were white but not one hundred percent positive" she should have been a politician, sometimes when i ask her a question i am more confused afterwards than i was before i asked her...
