Bog plants
This group includes plants that benefit from a damp, water-sodden planting site (a "bog garden") for all or part of their life^. A boggy area might be developed to provide a transition between a pond and the surrounding garden and there are foliage and flower plants for this area. Note: this group doesn't contain plants that need to sit in a very few inches of water (these are known as "marginal plants" and you will find those in the pond plants group).
