Description: The plants in the following table thrive on sites near lakes, rivers, or wetlands that may experience periodic flooding or a seasonally high water table. Because of their proximity to sources of water, soils are moist to wet many months of the year. If your site has moist to wet soils and does not currently have trees to provide shade, the plants on this list should do well. These plants prefer sunny locations.
