Re: In the dark


     Try Lamium and Lamiastrum.  The silver speckles on the leaves are 
     great in the shade.  Fuschia procumbens - interesting shade 
     groundcover I would never be without.  Trilliums.  Sarcoccocca (is 
     that enough c's?); love this shrub with it's bluish-green leaves, 
     fragrant little flowers and then you get berries!  Corokia 
     cotoneaster.  I also find that Bergenia survives as well in the shade 
     as it does in the sun.  Violas, impatiens, for a few more. My 
     Trigridia always bloomed in complete shade; maybe I was just lucky.

Need ideas!! I have a 15 foot tunnel that runs though my hedge. It gets 
very little sun in summer and even less in winter. We put in a water 
fall at one end with lots of ferns. Any ideas for plants that grow in 
total shade.
