I had to do mega internet research to figure out what might grow in that shady spot - I had no clue. It has dappled light till about noon, then it is in complete shade. I bet I have looked and read on the internet for several hours over the past month, trying to decide what to get.

I thought I wanted columbine, but then when I went to the nursery (a local nursery that has NEVER steered me wrong), they recommended ruellia and holly fern. I sure hope they live! If not, oh well, I'll just get some rocks and make a rock garden! LOL!

I'm going to get a pretty pot and set it on the flat rock you see in the picture. I'll probably plant annuals in the pot - maybe petunias, the nursery said they would bloom in shade - not in winter, of course. LOL!
