I'm thinking Sarracenia, but I can't find a picture of anything like it.

Thanks all.

You've got a Jack-in-the-pulpit, Arisaema triphyllum.

looks to me like what we call "Petit Prêcheur" in French, or "Jack in the
Pulpit" or "Indian Turnip" in English. One of the scientific names would be
"Arisema Atrorubens" [(Aiton) Blume], but yours looks white ;)

***
Apparently /Arisaema atrorubens/ is only dubiously distinct from the better
known /Arisaema triphyllum/.
http://www.ct-botanical-society.org/...saematrip.html

There are some 150 /Arisaema/ species (Mabberley 2002), ranging through
E.Africa-Arabia-Asia-N.America-Mexico
The (striped) spathe varies in color, shades of purple-pink-green-white

A nice spectacular one
