Xela, if you buy the variegated one you'll probably end up with some solid down the road.........at least I did. Once it got established and started spreading a little, I've had to dig away some stems that were solid green. I guess the variegated was trying to revert back to solid. So now I have a nice clump of both solid and variegated ! Actually a few clumps of solid now.

Many thanks for that warning, Diohio.
I had the plain version in my last garden and transplanted some to Paul's garden before I moved. Sadly the Gardeners' Gaitors and White Comfrey in the same border at Paul's have overpowered the Loosestrife. So it would be a bonus for me if the variegated version produced reverted shoots, two plants for the price of one you might say :-)

Wow, I didn't know a variegated form existed.
Not sure which I prefer, the plain or this one,
definitely a Wish List item though :-)
