I have a bed in the front of our house that has some Texas Columbines in it. It's only about 2' wide but 12'-15' long. It faces north and about 3/4 of the bed gets lots of dappled shade. The one end closest to the west side gets lots of sun, but I have some stuff growing down there. What can I plant in the dappled shade in, around, under, behind the columbines to keep it colorful throughout the spring and summer? I'm also open to any ideas for those planters up by the window, too!
