Double duty now for @Dimelius and triple for you now that you let the dirt run out of the bag so everyone can see our royal laundry! Another thing, if you don't have some degree of dementia you aren't allowed to be a party to the party of the first and 2nd parties in the Royal party!

So what I was saying in the post I lost (was stolen) is that ...I started putting plants in my bog, so far I've got: irises, marigold and cardinal (the 3 resident plants) 3 taro, 4 water canna, 3 impatient, 1 calla lily, 1 spike ...still room to fill but I need time to go shopping
In the plant poll I have: irises and marigold (permanent residents) I added 3 impatient, 1 umbrella palm, 1 spike, 1 taro, 1 creepying jenny, i mini umbrella palm (not sure on the name), 2 water canna, 1 coleus

Thank you @brokensword for teaching me I can use coleus in water, I should add one in the bog as well

What other NOT "water plant" have you guys used successfully in the bog/pond? Anyone tried Zinnia?

I'd say 'stop encouraging her' but well, with the Italian flourish to your English, she might misunderstand and it would get worse!!

a lot of plants will do fine and develop water roots, so take a chance and experiment. No, never did zinnias. I TRY to stay in the pond plant section as there's a lot of variety and I can't grow them easily in the garden. But this year, put in two coleus (bog v1) and some impatiens in bog v2. Mostly, I have perennials. Looks like you have a nice variety, though!

@gemma all sounds great on the plant. I don't have a bog so can't suggest anything else. I do love the Sedges tho. they are really good at sucking up gunk!

YIKES! Pullin' out the 'rotten tangerine' trick, are ye? Serious stuff, ya know...might induce some gif-making that'll melt yer royal hi-ness all to puddles in front of the chocolate pantry door! Don't forget who drew 'change the pantry locks' on their chore list last month...!!!

very true and a good idea; I forgot I put some zebra grass in my bog last year and it's come back just fine. Good one, jDub!
