Water Needs: High

Plants with “High Water Needs” thrive in consistently moist to wet soils and require frequent watering, especially during warm or dry weather. These plants often originate from environments like bogs, stream banks, or regions with high rainfall. They may wilt quickly or show signs of stress if the soil is allowed to dry out significantly. When selecting plants with high water needs, be prepared to provide regular irrigation or choose locations in your garden that naturally retain more moisture, such as low-lying areas or spots near a water source. While they can be incredibly lush and beautiful, they demand more attention to their hydration to ensure they flourish.
