Shade Gardening: Would like help with native shade plant suggestions, 1 by Equilibrium

Here's one of my Tassel Ferns. If you like the Tatting Ferns, you will like this too. Remember, most of my ferns were planted this year. I think I have about 20 different species out there in multiples. So far my only failures are going to be the Netted Chain Ferns and the Maiden Hair Ferns. The squirrels uprooted them so many times trying to place acorns in the fresh compost and top soil around them that it would be a miracle if they came back next year. We'll see but the Netted Chain Ferns are looking really nasty and the Maiden Hairs are barely hanging in there. I think the deer ate off the tops of most of the Maiden Hairs quite a few times too so that didn't help much either.
