Paul et al,
I put the plants where they want to go, with an eye to growth habits and aesthetic appeal, of course...
And certainly a greywater wetland can be safe to grow plants in- as long as you know and can control what is going down your drain ( biodegradeable soaps and organic nutrients from our kitchen sink, in this case).
I am pleased to grow the most flavorful celery that I have ever tasted...

Hi, Larry. This description of your greywater wetlands has piqued my
interest, because I never gave much thought to growing edibles in there
(frankly, I didn't know it was safe). Do you have to put the edibles
downstream of the heavyweight filter plants like cattails, or do you
just put them anywhere you please?
