Pottsey,
Are you looking for a shrub or a perennial? When you say "likes wet feet"
do you mean continually boggy, standing water sometime or just a damp spot?
How big a plant are you looking for - height, diameter? What's the soil
like? Clay, sand, loam - acid, alkaline?
If you get a bit more specific, everyone can come up with suggestions that
might actually work for you :-)
