Hello Andrew, Just searched for pics of Pickerel Weed as I've ordered a plant which should be arriving shortly.
Does the plant spread well? I want to set mine in a boggy grass area as I believe they will tolerate grass. Thanks, Dawn

Dawn - it should eventually make a clump about two to three feet across

Should look good then, thanks
