      It looks like Acanthus Molllis - Bear's Breeches. I love them!!

        Oh well done VC. I knew I'd seen that foliage somewhere before.

          Me too Rusty! The leaves on mine are more indented and it never really died back over winter this year - so looks rather battered..
          The test is - has CookYV's flowered? Probably not if it is decimated as a weed every year

              That's what I thought it was but didn't want to suggest as couldn't see why it was on an allotment. Reread thread it's in a garden so perfectly possible. I quite like them too. Probably doesn't earn it's keep so has to go.

                It does self seed, so may well have blown in from somewhere else I like the spiny flowers - deceptively vicious
