I planted my plants in boggy soil next to a small creek. I thought the water in the soil would give the plant a better chance out in the wild with a hot summer ... was that a bad idea?

One must be careful not to keep the air specialized roots constantly wet or the plant will drown. The bottom section of roots can be constantly wet provided that the water has oxygen in it. Stagnant water will soon kill the plant.

if it was I might still have time to attack the soil around it with a shovel and give it some ability to drain with some gravel and sand.
