Hi - I am new to the list and am looking for evergreens (besides the
obvious rhodies and hollies) that perform well in shade.
I have one site that receives about 3 to 4 hours of sun - and another
near my patio that receives no direct sun, but dappled shade under a
high canopy of trees.
My garden is about 3 years old, cleared from "natural woodland."
Although some of my hostas and astilbes are doing beautifully - I need
something more in that "second layer." I have planted a couple of
japanese maples and a dogwood - but they are still young. I hate the
"plop plop" look of my young garden and am looking for ways to pull it
together.
Thanks!
