Does anyone know what this plant is?

Went to an NGS Open Garden at Abbotwood near Stow-on-the-Wold and am not sure what this plant is. Anyone know. Thanks in advance for your help.

I'd say it's Veratrum genus.

I've just added a photo of a bed of these but I don't know if this link will work.

I camre across these last year at an NGS garden in Oxfordshire. They were as big as a large Hosta and looked fantastic.
