Not all plants are able to safely tolerate the shade created by tree crowns. You can turn a shaded area into an exquisite flower garden or lush border with the help of shade-tolerant plants: bulbs, perennials and shrubs.
Plants for deep shade
- ferns (ostrich, shitnikov, female kochedyzhnik)
- clefthoof
- hosts (especially varieties with dense leathery leaves of green or blue hues, for example, Queen of the Seas, Deep Blue Sea, Blue Mouse Ears). BMost variegated hosts are sensitive to lack of light and in deep shade can lose their color and become monochromatic.
Plants for the "shadow" zone
- variegatedhosts with white, golden, yellow edging on the leaves
- periwinkle, covering the ground with dense leaves and small flowers of blue, purple, white, pink, red shades
- ephemeroid plants:anemone, crested, crocuses, muscari, scaffolds and etc.
- the bleeding center is magnificent can grow up to 1 m in height
- Venus shoes - the culture is capricious. It requires loose, permeable soils and mandatory shading.
- thiarella grows quickly, forming a dense wide above-soil cover in 2-3 seasons
- geyhera valued for its spectacular leaves of various colors, compact dense bush shape and modest but graceful flowering
