Hello. I'm a homeowner in West St Paul and my backyard backs up to a pond. I've spent hours pulling thistle (I believe Canadian thistle) and other weeds over the past few weeks, at the edge of the pond. I'd like to plant native plants that would likely do well in that area and hopefully decrease the weeds over time. My goal is and area that is ecofriendly for pollinators and requires low maintenance. Would you please take a look at the photo attached and advise as to whether I'm on the right track, what plants you'd recommend, or where to go to see a list of plants that might work. The area gets 6+ hours of sun per day and is shady after 3-4 pm. thank you!
