White rosebay willowherb

Does anyone grow white rosebay willowherb (Epilobium angustofolium album)?

I like the look of it and would like to give it a try, but haven't managed to get hold of any yet. Is it as invasive as the wild pink stuff? I have read various reports, some say yes and some say no. I don't really mind if it is invasive though, I have a large border to fill.
Can it supoort itself, or would staking be beneficial?

I imagine it would be pretty easy from seed as well. Just need to find a supplier.

l bought mine last year, from Southview Nurseries, on sale 2006 @ £3.00, at the moment l can see young plants growing in the area, l think they may be from this white one, as we have none of the wild pink one, anywhere near, anyway l wait to see, l would like a group of them, and those l don't need can easily be removed.
