Whenever I read one of Graham's posts in the future I shall always think "I'm reading the words of the country's leading coot's feet specialists" :P

It isn't an emerging shoot on something like a Rheum or something is it?  Not that I've ever seen one of them in person.... but I imagine it would look something like that?

Bingo!

I hadn't expected the species or cultivar anyway  ;)

However, I think it is Bergenia 'Silberlicht'.

So it's an Aristolochia?  It's so beautiful!!  With just the middle of that I would have battled to work it out I think.

By the way, you can always modify something you post if you realise you get it wrong.  With an image like that, you go into the same area where you load the image and select it to be deleted.  Then you replace it with the one you wanted.  If you're quick, no-one would know you put the wrong one up.  Of course you run the risk that someone just happens to see the full image and can then "guess" what it is.  ;D ;D
