[SG] Hydrangeas

Hi,

I would like to know if it would be okay to plant Hydrangeas on the
South side of my garage.   We live right in the middle of the woods so
there are quite
a few trees that still shade that side of the garage.  It doesn't even
get 4 full
hours of direct sun. I know Hydrangeas I have planted in other areas of
the yard which gets way more shade do just fine.  I live in WI  zone
4a.  I need 3 shrubs to plant on
the south side of the garage and I just don't know what to put there
that would do good
with some direct sunlight some of the time and shaded the rest of the
time. I have tryed shrubs that need full sun and they just don't grow
good.  I don't know the name
of the Hydrangeas I have all I know is they are not the Peegee
Hydrangea.  These that I have bloom white and everyone around here grows
them.  I know they grow
pretty tall and it's like the branches grow straight up out of the
ground.  In the
winter you see all these branches standing up with the dead faded flower
heads on the end of them.

Thanks,
