what is this plant

Looks like a Gunnera to me

Just gorgeous - I would say its a Rheum (ornamental rhubarb)

I would say rheum as well with a flower spike coming up

I moved mine last year from the pond edge to a drier, more fertile area and its looking great. I'm wondering if mine will have a white or pink flower? Do you have a Rheum Andrew?

I had one several years ago but the position wasn't really damp enough for it

Thanks Andrew - I think my previous location was too wet and on clay, doing fine now though - they are beautiful plants.

What a great plant! Wish I had room by the stream for one!

it is really lovely :o)

Andrew/Spritz: Do you have a Darmera peltata?
I fancy getting one :)

No, but I've seen them - another one I'd love to have room for! Go for it!

Yes I do. I posted a picture of one a few days ago

I think I saw it at Wisley... yes, I'm sure I did.

Thanks Andrew/Spritz: I'll take a look Andrew.
