Help with landscaping a damp area

15 years ago

I would love help with adding some foundation plants to the one last icky part of my garden. It gets pretty wet. I just had to take out a beautiful 10-yr old variegated wigelia, which succumbed to unusually frigid winds here (Seattle) in November. I have taken it out, and now need to consider what else to do. I have slate stepping stones to our hose faucet, (so you can walk through this soggy area), but they have all crumbled (too wet for them?) Most of the area to landscape is under the eaves, so rather dry, but immediately out from it is soggy. What are the right stepping stones to use, that won't crumble, and what plants can I put along the house, that will only get to be 2-3 feet tall tops, and handle those crazy conditions? the space is only 6 feet long.
