Lots of plants will grow in shade and partial sunshine. Chinese Ginger, Japanese painted fern, Cantonese Fairy Bells, Hellebore, Impatiens, Wax Begonia, Lungwort, Pulmonaria, Bleeding Heart, lady's mantle, and hosta are some examples. I'm sure you'll find others in your garden center. Enjoy your garden!
