It is a tough plant. The plants that do great for me in our heat/high temps are: water willow, crushed ice sagittaria, duck potato, Yerba Mansa, dwarf umbrella Palm, dwarf papyrus, Lizard's tail, Mare's Tail, bog lily, taro (partial shade), parrot's feather, King Tut papyrus, LA iris, white rain lilies, water sedge.
