[PRIMROSES] Companion plants

I would like a listing of shade plants that I could get for a new garden that
will have alot of Hosta in it.
I live in Missouri where the weather gets very hot (100 degrees +) for days on
end during the summer and the winter can bring -0 degrees for periods of time.
The bad thing we have here is ground heaving, which I try to stop by mulching.
I have shade, but the water supple is very expensive. I use soaker hoses
through out my gardens. I keep 4" of cypress mulch around all my plants to
help retain moisture.
I've just started collecting Hosta this year but have had some in my garden
for 6 years. I'm making new flower beds for the new collections and would like
some interesting companion plants.
If you could recommend places to purchase these shade plants, that would help.

Thank you,
Sue Smith
