  • Joe Pye Weed, tall, dramatic, favorite of pollinators,
     
  • Swamp Milkweed, Monarch host plant,
     
  • Turtlehead, white flowers add texture and bumblebees bees crawl right inside,
     
  • Marsh Blazingstar, dramatic stalks of flowers for color, texture, and winter interest,
     
  • Aster (New England, Shining, or Flat-Topped), keystone plant for late-season or migrating pollinators with exuberant flowers,
     
  • Bog Goldenrod, keystone host plant with artful golden flowers, insect-pollinated
     
  • Great Blue Lobelia, tall stalks of artful flowers,
     
  • Wild Blue Iris, large, dramatic, early bloomers,
     
  • Blue Vervain, tall graceful flowers enjoyed by butterflies
