| This spring I'm planning to start a bog garden in a wet area of my property. I would like any suggestions for plant selection. Area is in full sun (southern exposer)zone 5, open field area where rain creates a stream. I want to slow the run off. |

| Perhaps the "dill weed" is pickerel weed (Pontederia cordata)? |
