Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
Too invasive for most gardens sadly ... if you had a water meadow with a river bank I'd go for it, but not in a 'normal' garden.
There are 'ornamental forms' sold by the plantsmen, but they too are huge and rampant and best grown by places like Heligan and other places with 'acreage to suit' like stately homes etc. https://www.burncoose.co.uk/site/plants.cfm?pl_id=3172
Those of us who love and appreciate them just have to encourage others to see their beauty in the wild so they're not viewed as weeds and sprayed into extinction.
