Viburnum - they like good moist soil and will happily grow - pulling moisture out of the ground - You can get different colours as well - flower toe or three times a year
Coleanthus - like dry or moist areas - but like sun as well - can grow big - two types - ground cover and tree shrub -
Lavatera and Lilac also will drink loads

Hydrangeas drink loads and are really easy to grow. (I use them for a drainage purpose too).
Evergreens are good because they have to keep drinking through the winter aswell to stop their leaves drying in the harsh winds. Viburnum tinus would be good.
