Hi Marge,
I'm in western Oregon (wet).
Flowers and foliage are fine, I like both.
Size wise, I'm wishing for 3-4' mostly and 1-2' (a few). Appreciate the help!

Well, Susan, there are LOTS of perennials who either like or tolerate
shade. Are you wanting only ones noted for flowers or do you
consider colored or variegated foliage. When you say mid-sized to
small....what do you mean? Like HOW tall / small?
And, I've forgotten where you are - north of me, I think.?

> I have a bed I am really struggling with. As things have matured
and grown, it is shadier than at first. It gets sun most of the day,
but mostly at the end of the day. I am able to grow some shrubs and
roses but the perennials seem to be struggling. The colors in the
bed are peach, yellow blue and white. I already have in the way of
perennials: aconitum, cimicifuga, iris, daylily, linaria, catmint
(sunniest part), delphinium, peony, geranium and mums. I'm
particularly looking for suggestions for mid-sized to small
perennials. Thank you all.
