Not everyone has the best soil conditions in the garden: However, this does not matter with some plants - they tolerate waterlogging well.
Adverse soil conditions can quickly determine whether plants will thrive in your garden.
Waterlogging in particular is a major problem that makes garden design difficult - but the problem cannot be solved that easily, especially near banks or pond edges.
Waterlogging prevents the roots of flowers and plants from absorbing oxygen and nutrients from the soil.
Therefore, it must always be ensured that the water can drain off well and that there is permeable, loose soil.
If you can't come up with it, you don't have to despair: In fact, there are also plants that can cope with waterlogging quite well.
These small plants and medium-sized perennials can tolerate waterlogging
If you always give your plants a little more than too little water when watering, you are
well advised
to use
primroses, foam cabbage or the carnation
.
All three reach a maximum height of 30 centimeters and bloom from January to September.
But if you are more of a fan of
medium-sized perennials
, you should take a
closer look at
, for example,
marsh marigold, geyseal, clove root, meadowsweet, cranesbill or the globe flower
.
These plants usually bloom between June and September and can also tolerate a lot of water.
Please note, however, that here, too, most of these plants cannot tolerate waterlogging indefinitely.
Geiskraut, among other things, does not like permanent waterlogging, as does the carnation root - but the marsh marigold always has to be moist.
