Tigerlily, see he

We used to have some very similar ones years ago, they come up every year, I
think from bulbs?

The plants in the photograph in this site are not 'tiger lilies'
(Lilium tigrinum) but good old fashioned 'day lilies - Hemerocallis.

Now the unidentified plant is ironically, the 'leopard flower' or
'blackberry lily' - Belamcandra chinensis, so you're nearly there.
Its a rather pleasing, hardy, rhizomatous perennial from Japan and
China flowering over a period of about 5 or 6 weeks in mid-summer.

After the flowers have set, they are followed by glistening black
seeds which can persist well into winter. Give it a sunny spot and it
will slowly develop into a handsome clump.
