Wet
tolerant plants are plants that once established can survive with
excess water than other plants. This is to say that the area in
which they are to be planted is low lying and poor draining, or
periodically floods, they should do well once the establishment
period has passed. (None of these plants can survive submerged for
long periods of time.)
