Retention Pond – Plants for
Q: Our neighborhood has a stormwater detention/retention area that has become very overgrown.
We are planning a work day to clear it but what plants should we use?
A: I found a great list put together by Prince Georges County in Maryland.
Although not all of these plants will work well in Georgia, most will.
