Hi all
Can one of you botanical boffins ID this plant for me please? It is growing profusely around pond and I know I didn't plant the blighter.
Thanks

Possibly Lobelia sp. Blue Lobelia?
Some are bog plants.
In a couple of days flowers will open and Id can then be made accurately.
Do please add further pics.

Yes, it does look like Lobelia. Lobelia siphilitica
Thanks both, I think that's a good shout. the pics of it in flower do look pretty so I think it might be a keeper. No idea how it got there though....
Will update once flowered.
cheers
HH
