| I have a house that faces directly west. I have a linden tree in front and room for flowers under it but very little thrives. Impatients die. The phlox only blooms for a month in early spring. I can get some geraniums to grow but they do not look that great either. I have no sun until 12:30 then it is intense until 3:30 or 4 pm. So sun lovers do not get enough sun and shade lovers croak in the afternoon. My hostas died. What do I plant for some flowers and color? |
| container nearby for the summer color. The container could be located so as to receive more consistent light during the day and then you would have a better chance of selecting annuals that would thrive and bloom nicely all summer. You could even set a bench under the tree where you could sit to admire the scenery -- and add all season interest to the area. I hope this gives you some ideas. container nearby for the summer color.
