Because it's a legume it can grow in poor soils, but does better with added organic matter. Specimen shrub.

This is a sedge and not a grass, but it does have a grass-like growth form. Useful in ponds to provide cover for wildlife and water quality treatment. Good in stormwater ponds.

The interesting flower shape reminded early settlers of someone standing in a pulpit. Retain if present. Interesting in a moist shade garden as its flowers form a small preacher in a pulpit.

Groundcover for moist, shady areas. This is an attractive fern that can form large patches in the right habitat area.
