Can you help me ID this plant?

I love it and want more!!!!! Last year, I think I pulled it before it flowered, thinking it was a weed. The foliage is similar to a weed that pops up in my yard. Will this self seed? Anything I can do to propagate for next year?

I think it is Obedient Plant. It is growing in the pond. Maybe good for my bog out back?

Definitely obedient plant - and it's anything but obedient! It spreads easily, both by seed and roots. Take a tiny piece and stick it between some rocks at the margin and you'll have more plant than you need in the blink of an eye. I love the blooms!

Me too! And the bees are going nuts!

Yep obedient plant, it will grow where ever it wants. I even have some out in the yard. They call it obedient plant because you can bend the stems and they will stay bent in whatever shape you put them. So they say, I have not tried it.

My obedient plant actually came from you @addy1 !

Yep! I try to warn people it is not obedient but the flowers are pretty!
