damp patch
Hello,
We've recently moved to a brand new house - which means, of course, that there's nothing in the garden. It's level, but that's about it. The house is built on old school playing fields and so the soil appears to be OK. All is well except for one corner, in the part of the garden I have ear marked for vegetables. It is extremely poorly drained and normally has some standing water if it's rained in the last few days. I've put some raspberry canes in that general area but have avoided the waterlogged area. What plants really like very wet soil? I think that I could plant a willow tree, but that's not ideal. Watercress would probably grow there but I have a limited capacity for that! I'd love to accept the site as it is and dig a pond there, but we have a toddler so that's something best avoided. Any thoughts? cheers dan |
