Shade Garden Plans

Shady spots in your yard, such as under a tree or beside a building, can be every bit as beautiful as brighter areas of your landscape. The key is choosing plants that thrive in low-light conditions. These shade garden plans feature annuals, perennials, shrubs, and small trees that offer lush foliage, distinctive color, and even flowers without needing full sun.
