  It may be a day lily, I'm not sure. They aren't poisonous. Pets rarely eat poisonous plants anyway. They know better than we do.

  Dordogne and Norfolk. Clay in Dordogne, sandy in Norfolk.

  Another possibility is Carex Pendula which most people would consider a weed that can be invasive.

  Knowledge is knowing that a tomato is a fruit.
  Wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad.

  Daylilies are toxic to cats, but not dogs.  Unfortunately, I have one cat who will eat anything she can put in her mouth, so I've had to do a lot of research for my last two yards to ensure any plants I use are safe.  She's the exception to the rule.
