Gardening in Wet Areas (Florida)

We always recommend native plants for your landscape including:

Ground covers: dwarf ruellia, mondo grass

Shrubs: Canna lily, Elephant Ear, Wax Myrtle

Trees: Bald Cypress, Red Bay, Weeping Willow

Palms: Cabbage Palm, Chinese Fan

These plants do not necessarily need to be watered more often. They just tolerate more water than most plants, and may not tolerate standing water for long periods of time.

See our printable care guide for more water tolerant plants.
