One of my friends laughs at how I move plants around like furniture. One of the main approaches I've seen in collectors gardens is to simply provide bare space around each plant ,well mulched, and have them beautifully labeled. You might consider featuring some of your plants this way as the accent is more on well grown, unique , individual plants. DonnaMack, I would be happy to provide a list of shade plants, particularly with variegated leaves and white flowers. I just need a little time to compile it. There are also some interesting threads on the Shady Gardens forum you might enjoy. Two plants off the top of my head that are very effective in the shade garden are Heuchera villosa "Autumn Bride" (autumn white bottle brush blooms) and variegated solomons seal together. I'm sure I posted this or a similar photo already in the Shade garden so forgive the repetition please. |
