small shrubs and flowers that appreciate shade
I haven't been able to work out the name of the plant that does best. And it's only just starting after winter. It's a tubular(?) with tall single stem flowers. And big leaves.
Anyway the other suggestions from our garden are;
- seedum (loads of variety so pick what you like/suitable)
- Lemon balm
- chives (left field I know, but they look nice throughout the growing season and are practical)
- fuchsia (if you think they look a bit old fashioned, have a look at the more tree like ones rather than bushes as they look more oriental and elegant )
- seedum (loads of variety so pick what you like/suitable)

Dug a flower bed at the weekend. I’ve no idea what I’m doing but hoping for a splash of colour. Will do the other side of the lawn when I’ve recovered.
Any recommendations for small shrubs and flowers that appreciate shade would be helpful
