Beautiful plant pash2! Folding the browning/dying leaves over the centre of the plant in winter really works well as flowering rose suggests & shelters any other little spring flowering plants/ bulbs growing under it as well!
Does this mean i can collect seeds from it at a later date?
If so How?
I also understand that i can split it in march to get another plant, again how?
I would love a range of these plants in my garden as they dont halve stop my garden from flooding. and whilst in Scotland last week i noticed a "wall" of these plant againt someones fence in Galloway or very near to Galloway on the A712

Do you mean the brown cone type thing?
It's a flower spike.
Hi,
That is the flower stalk - you may even get some seeds from it if the flower stalk makes it through winter.
Those are the flowers come seed part,I keep mine well watered and in winter fold the leaves over the flower heads to keep the frost at bay.
Thanks
