Plants for Wet Spaces
We offer a marvelous array of plants that thrive in the kind of wet spaces that can be troublesome eyesores where nothing seems to grow, or, with the right plant choices, easily tended places of beauty. Many of these problem-solving plants are also sustainable and wildlife-friendly. Does your yard have spots where water lingers in low spots or rushes downhill during rainstorms? Are you living in a wetland zone where regulations require native wetland plants? Do lawn areas get too squishy to walk on or mow? Are there swampy areas, ditches, or swales? Or perhaps you aim to plant a buffer strip to protect a lake from runoff, stabilize a stream bank, or create a rain garden. The plants on this page, many of them native wetland or wet prairie plants, will transform your soggy spots.
