Unidentified plant growing beside my pond

Hi all

Can one of you botanical boffins ID this plant for me please? It is growing profusely around  pond and I know I didn't plant the blighter. 

Thanks

Possibly Lobelia sp. Blue Lobelia?

Some are bog plants.

In a couple of days flowers will open and Id can then be made accurately.

Do please add further pics.

Yes, it does look like Lobelia. Lobelia siphilitica

Thanks both, I think that's a good shout. the pics of it in flower do look pretty so I think it might be a keeper. No idea how it got there though....

Will update once flowered.

cheers
