Mike - I discovered this plant on GOY on someone's photo. I just love it too! Its full name is Persicaria microcephala 'Red Dragon'. (that's just in case you could get it somewhere!)

I think the flowers are tiny and hard to see, and as you say, it's the leaves we want it for. :-)

Thanks. It looks even better against the pinky-mauve Delphiniums, but I can't get them all in one photo.
