What about ferns?  They don't flower but they stay in a predicable shape and can take the conditions you mention I think.

I believe it is just very slow draining, staying damp for long periods.  Not

Also, I guess I was wanting to ask how much water does it hold? Is it
just slow draining or does it actually collect standing water at times?
