We’ve just moved into a new house and have no idea what this could be. It’s just started to push through with spring coming a bit late in the UK, and it kind looks like a black snakes head!

Because there’s so many of them, I snipped one open to reveal what kinda looked like sweet corn inside the tip? Im guessing it's some form of bulb, as it has only just started to shoot.

I wonder if I’m being thrown off the scent of what it could be because it could be frost damaged through a harsh cold winter?

Any ideas?
