I gather that it needs moist soil and sunny conditions. I wonder if it would work if I dug down and used some butyl liner to create a bit of a bog garden. Wiggly Wigglers sell plants - March at Wiggly Wigglers
I am tempted  Your thoughts would be appreciated...

Hemp Agrimony is a good nectar plant! I would probably suggest that if your going to use butyl is to puncture holes for some drainage as it prefers damp conditions but well drained!!! Try sourcing this variety Euportium Purpurea ssp maculatum Riesenscirm it's a new viarety and vey attractive!
