Hey Folks,
Starting to consider terrascaping and planting the terrestrial and bog portion of my Tiger Salamander Paludarium, and I'm looking for some plant suggestions.

I would like to stay with more of a native theme, or at least plants that are similar looking to the natives.
To date, I'm looking at some bonsai trees which would emulate our native cottonwood trees to a degree, some moss, a native Forget-Me-Not that has done will in both terrestrial and bog type environments for me, and a native fern that has done well for me in another paludarium type tank.
Appreciate any suggestions for terrestrials or bog style plants that others have had good luck with. Thanks-in-advance.
Tank thread is here if you are interested in checking it out.
