I had a bit of a go to cut mine back last autumn as they've big elbows pondside and tend to shunt the other plants out the way. But nevertheless they're back again this year. I posted a piccy of one of them in the photo section.

Well spotted :) I have a wild variety in the garden and it appears everywhere but where I originally planted it. :(
