Sorry about your Rose of Sharon and mallow. Both require full sunshine. But there are lots of perennials that do well in part to full shade. Some to consider include Acorus (Sweet Flag), Hosta, Allium, Anemone, Columbine, Astilbe, Begonia., Caladium, Dicentra (Bleeding Heart), Foxglove, Evergreen candytuft, daylilies, primrose, and Coralbells. If you're looking for shrubs, these will do well in the area you describe: Azaleas, Boxwood, Carolina Allspice, Enkianthus, Fothergilla, Oakleaf Hydrangea, Japanese Holly, Japanese Kerria, Leucothoe, Oregon Grape Holly, Pieris, Rhododendron and Alpine Current. Good luck with your garden! |
