I don't know the scale but going by the gumleaves the green leaves are smaller than agapanthus. Are those white flower buds in the photo? I would think of jonquil Narcissus tazetta or perhaps snowflake Leucojum aestivum. Wait for the flowers.

I think you are right Mike; the plant is smaller than agapanthus and yes the white bits are flower buds.

The flowers are probably out by now. Can anybody check? I can't see the location until they are identified.

Spelling of common name: Jonquil, just one l (according to Census and various other sources).
