Persicaria are a fabulous group of long lived, durable plants with dock like leaves that are topped with masses of generally upright, narrow, almost poker like flowers for a long period over summer. There are now numerous selections in various shades of red, pink and white. Some will make significant clumps over time. Happy in most soil types, with a sunny open aspect, but may tolerate some light shade. Also known by the new name of Bistorta.
