I found this growing in the garden and I had to look it up to find its name. Apparently it is called Lords-and-ladies, Cuckoo-pint, Wild arum, Jack in the Pulpit, Devils and Angels, Cows and Bulls, Adam and Eve, Bobbins, Naked Boys, Starch-Root, Wake Robin, Starchwort, Adder's Root, Friar's Cowl, Kings and Queens, Parson and Clerk, Ramp, Quaker and Arum maculatum.

I'm surprised that you didn't know this one. It used to grow in abundance in Westmoreland where I spent my 'farm' holidays as a child. We knew it as 'cuckoo pint' although I did hear it called 'lords and ladies'.
Thanks for all the butterflies - I didn't know any of them so I'm learning!
