Re: [SG] Rodgersia not blooming was: Need suggestions

Clyde,

Could very well be in your part of the country - you're farther north than
I am.  Mine flower fine in their shady spot - but they do need consistently
moist conditions or their leaves brown out.

Plants that absolutely have to have sun where you are often do quite well
in shade where I am and some of them need some shade - even if designated
as 'full sun' plants, because our sun is so hot (closer to the equator).
