Good for hiding edges of pond liners, but can be invasive and grow outside the pond.

I have this plant by my pond and this year it has finally TAKEN OFF! New growth is all green. Will it color up?

Some new growth has been all green, but most of mine has been variegated. This is only my second season with this plant and it is coming back all variegated. I guess time will tell. Maybe different nutrients in the soil or water ???
