Persicaria polymorpha is a plant with presence! It grows five to seven feet tall into an arching vase shape. It is topped with astilbe-like masses of white flowers on every stem often from summer well into fall. The flowers are followed by pinkish seed heads. A clumping, non-invasive plant, white dragon looks great at the back of the border with Miscanthus, Sambucus nigra ‘Black Beauty’ and other large perennials. Loves moist soils but quite tolerant of drought once established.
