if you can grow in hydro could you float a plant in a swamp and get it to work?

Moving water works, native americans planted some crops in streams, anchored them down, aeration is key, Swamps have a good amount of air, I'm just not sure. If you could get a really good climatized plant... It may work

floating them in swamp just wont work, it needs aeration and ferts. you can plant them like 10-20ft near the swamp edge, the ground there would be moist enough but not too wet
