Any ideas?

Came up in april in garden. After the flowers, which are held up on stiff 8 inch stems, come the leaves which look like hand sized gunnera leaves? Anyone know what it is, thanks.

    Darmera Peltata perhaps? Often grows in bog gardens.

    I like it. but it can get rather big, and a bit invasive through its rizomes.

    That's what I'd have said too, if I could remember it's name image


    Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.

    Happens to me all the time image. I thought it was a miracle that I could come up with a name this time image.

    Only hand size? Either yours is a baby or you've got very big hands!

     I like it too, but after a number of years I'm having to chop lumps off and throw it out!
