Species tend to have that 'species look' - some better than others. My picture is is of a Species-X (cross) - is extremly robust and I use it to hold a bank of dirt in place. This one has a attractive bloom - and if it has some shade, the foliage is very impressive as dark green with a red-purple base.

If you are unhappy with yours - perhaps just move it to another more suited place that is not in you 'garden-proper'. I find these will grow just about anywhere and use them where I want to keep other things from growing as the roots can be very dense.
