Peter: 

 

            Sorry, I forgot to mention cataphylls.  These are the little bract-like structures from which the new leaf emerges.  They may fall off after the new leaf emerges but more likely they are persistent as fibers, remaining attached to the stem.

Blade = Blatt [ger] yes

Dear Peter:

 

            There is no such name and unfortunately there are scores of species that look like this based on your photo.  I suspect you have no locality but if you did that would help. Also can you not take pictures showing the blades close up, the stem with the cataphylls and an inflorescence if one exists.
