For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.Unfortunately, all marginals need a certain amount of maintenance ranging from dead heading to cutting back in winter. Here's a list of the smaller, not so invasive species. Marsh marigold (caltha pulustris 'florie-pleno') Acorus species Lobelia cardinalis Zantedeschia (bog arum) Astilbe Houtynnia Hosta Iris pseudochorus 'Varigata' Hope that's enough to get you thinking, if you want any more, just ask and i'll get my thinking cap on !!! |
got this growing in a half submerged pot in my raised pond. cute, unusual, hardy, zero maintenance, comes in varied pinks and reds. http://plants.thompson-morgan.com/uk/en/product/8652/1?RA=tiscali
Water forget me not is quite vigorous, but dies back each winter and is very shallow rooted so easy to control
also pulmonaria is nice and doesn't need a lot of care
