Grows like crazy, spreading through rhizomes. The leaves are large, simple, and alternating. The flower is irregular with 3 sepals, 4 petals. The pollen is on a stamen that looks like a modified petal. The carpel is inferior and 3 chambered. Now that I've planted it. I can't seem to get rid of it. Little pieces of rhizomes turn in to new plants. Very beautiful when in bloom though.
