Post #4940669

I have an area along a stream that contains several large underground springs. The area usually has about one-half to an inch of standing water over clay-based soil. I cannot mow the area as a result.

I am looking for a fast-growing invasive (yep invasive) plant that likes these conditions. I can mow off what travels beyond the bog. Cat-o-nine tails that I planted last year were eaten by the muskrat!

Any suggestions would be appreciated.
