How is a bog planted and with which plants?

Question

I recently had a pond put in my yard and it has a bog....any suggestions on what kinds of plants to use in the bog and how to plant them?

Answer 1

Plants that like their feet wet do well in bogs. Certain types of iris, papyrus, chameleon plant, corkscrew rush, alocasia, cannas and many other plants will do well. See what your pond shop has for sale - ask for marginal plants. Just plant in the dirt and keep moist. Simple to take care of and really great to look at!
