Find your planting zone by doing a Google search, then Google plants that do well in moist soil. Check to see if they will thrive in your planting zone. For example, I have ajuga (ground cover) planted in my high moisture areas in the garden. It thrives in zones 4-10.

Depending on your location and planting zone you may want to research Louisiana iris and crocosmia. Both have beautiful blooms.
