I have had these in the past. One was growing near a tap that was used often so it got some water regularly. They are bog plants, and you see them along streams in large gardens in England.

I was looking at an entry in Bloomday July and saw one. I knew I wanted another possibly for around our pond at the new house. Thought, how would I find one of those. Well, how many is this?

Ordered one and another plant to take advantage of the postage, though it is reasonable. They arrived very nicely packed. And planted! Yea.
