What's 'is name?

Wild Arum

Lords and Ladies

Cuckoo Pint

Parson's Pintle

Jack-in-the-pulpit

I just love this plant for some reason.  It's the first woodland plant to show, the red berries give autumn colour to the woodland floor, and most of all the strange flower fascinates me.  It is fertilised by a tiny fly which it traps until coated with pollen and then releases.

But in my garden I'm fighting its attempts to overrun the place.

Ambivalence.
