I am in zone 5 and I have many different colors of the water iris, water forget me not and in the picture I have attached, I have a hardy hibiscus that blooms in August. Next to it in this picture is water celery, which you can see the white Queen Anne's Lace like flowers that it gets. I have also put in recently Cardinal Flower, another hibiscus, Blue Lobelia, Bog Bean and the Marsh Marigold is nice too.

I also have the Creeping Jenny that Art-N-The-Garden is talking about. It is nice because it spread so well and had these nice yellow flowers in early Summer.

Last year, I put in 2 different type of Arrowheads and they both came back this year. Acorus is nice also as well as Zebra Rush.

We have had the Pickerel Weed growing and I just love that. I have the kind with the blue flower - you can get them with white flowers and recently I saw one for sale that was supposed to have Pink Flowers - this one was not if flower when I saw it.

There are a multitude of plants in our zone that you can use.
