Default I have a questioon about creating a pseudo-bog.

Don't suppose you could give up using Chlorine bleach?

These a low spot on the side of my house that gets a lot of standing water
during the spring or whenever we get allot of rain but also alto of sun.
But during the rest of the year it stays pretty dry . I have a sump pump
that discharges close to there and the waste water from my washing machine
can be piped there to keep a more continuous moisture level. The sump
discharge is not a problem - I know - but the soap and bleach could at

time
be a problem. Should I let these discharge above the bog and then let
nature take it course? For know I'm going with Louisiana Iris and ginger
lilies maybe some cardinal flowers and go from there any suggestions?
