Dan,
Have not grown it, but...
If you have any trouble finding info on it, Persicaria affinis is now
Polygonum affine.  The photos I've seen are beautiful, but on one site I saw
an interesting way to describe invasive:
"For sunless spaces, fast growing. Ground-cover plant. Does not tolerate
other plants well."
