are these bog plants or marginals: hostas, geum, perennial lobellia? I've got myself all confuzzled about it!

Still haven't lined the pond (due to my recent incapacity, haven't been able to get round the garden centres)...

Hi Aqualegia.Geum are actually rock plants and prefer well drained soil.Lobellia and hostas can be grown in a variety of places,but not too boggy.They can actually be grown in normal soil as long as it is kept well watered.I have hostas at the moment that are taking over around my pond,with not a hole in site.Thank you froggies!! the lobellia too grows at the back near the fence and I have to stake it when it gets going.
