This is an Asian species of amsonia. Similar to A. tabernaemontana but with a more upright form, it bears pretty blue, star-like flowers in late spring and early summer and then provides a second display from September onwards when its broad, fresh green leaves turn beautiful autumnal yellows and pinks.
