Fatsia Japonica
I got this as a tiny potted house plant. It is now a specimen shrub in my garden.

Thanks azz for your help.
Yes, Phil, it is also known as Castor Oil Plant. Mine has suffered this year from frost damage (browning of the leaves) but has now recovered.

I call it, a Castor Oil plant, we had a big one in Cheshire, I was thinking of something completely different with pretty flowers.
