 Hi Marge  - here are a few more plants for dry shade as long as you can
 water  once a week or so - I have acid sandy soil and the plants have to
 compete with poplar, aspen and maple roots.

 The foam flowers once establlished  will tolerate dry shade - Tiarella
 cordifolia, wherryi and polyphylla. >>
I had almost forgotten about these gems! The reason is simple-they perform
beautifully ,as galla@INTRANET<|>CA< suggests in the most adverse
condition=dry shade.

I DO water them also about once every 10 days or so, but they never wilt,
never show any setback and those marvelous "flowers" really brighten up the
REAL shade garden.
