Saving my plants/trees?

| I have a concern about some flooding in my back yard and the fruiting plants and trees that was doing well up until this. I have several goji berry plants that will need to be transplanted outside this year but now with the flooding from neighbors pond...will the wet conditions kill my plants? Also a dwarf reblooming lilac? Any ideas??? Was wondering if I can keep monding up dirt to make larger hills...would this work? The water from the neighbors pond doesnt drain at all from my yard, it just sits there building up more and more water to what looks like it will eventually become another pond...filling my whole back year. |

| Maybe you need to consider bog gardening? I am sorry I am not more help but I am new here. If you do go for a bog garden we have wild pitcher plants (carnivorus)on a few areas here...they are way cool to me. |

| I wouldn't mind a bog garden, but don't know enough about them. Would love to learn about these carnivorus plants. Do they take full sun or shade? There is a section where all the water is coming down from the bank that forms a deep creek now even tho the water is not moving all that much, just enough to fill in my yard. It sounds fasinating, is there any link here that I could learn about these? I'm concidering digging a trench along side of this creek area, that has tall grass that will grow there and we have much rock. Hope I'm not confusing...I'm just leaning about all this myself. Thanks for the info! |
