Hi

I'm fairly new to gardening and need some advise.

I have a bare patch from water dripping down when raining and after. It is where I just stared growing new lawn, close to a flower bed. I was hoping someone could help me with an idea what I could plant there. Or any other idea how I can use that space so it doesn't spoil the new look of my garden. Some sort of decoration that can handle dripping, etc...?

I have a similar spot and use the Louisiana Iris there. They take very little care and thrive in wet moist areas such as ditches, bogs, roadsides, and any low area that retains moisture.

Several different colors available. Mine haven't bloomed yet this spring but are yellow in color when blooming.

How about a rain barrel @jasch . Free water for your plants! ... or a mini pond to attract wildlife? Or maybe a rain chain
