Plants for Wet, Boggy, Water

Points to remember: 

Some plants for boggy situations can be quite invasive but they are often less so in dry conditions

Our plants are not suitable for planting directly in pond margins as they contain a soil insecticide that might harm pond life. Wash off all soil from the roots and replant in special pond compost or unfertilised garden soil.

Below is a selection of plants from our range that have thrived in wet conditions.
