Category: Garden - Topic: Plants For Shade

For that shady north side of the house you have many alternatives- despite the fact that shady areas are often very challenging to landscape. Plants are increasingly being bred to handle shady areas. A mixture of shrubs, perennials, and annuals provides a lot of color to provide beauty in a shady area. If the shady area is prone to dampness, watch for slugs and other insects . Hostas, impatients, astilbes, and viburnums are all good choices in a shady area of the house.
