I wanted to create an english stlye looking bed on the front of our house with a pink climbing rose growing around/above windows with delphiniums under. The front of the house is north facing so the back half of the raised bed is basicly solid shade, I had already locally found 2 zephirine drouhin which I read where shade tolerant (images of which gave me the idea for the garden). I had planted them there but forward enough to be in the sun.....now I realize it would not look very good on the ground from the plant base to the wall and may not grow tall enough to meet in the center above the window, so I am wondering if it would do as well farther back into the shade, or just to put in a garden arch. I could not move the evergreens in the photo, but the other plants there are peonies, they need moved into better sun anyway I just put them there to have good drainage until I could figure out where to put them last year. They did grow and leaf but did not get any blooms (lack of sun). I could only move the roses 2 ft back because of the basement window well, or move them behind the arborvitae where they would truely never get any sun.
Any suggestions for them to continue to live and to bloom well? They were spring bagged roses I planted in pots then transplanted here last fall, they each had 2-4 blooms this year.
