Any colorful shade plants that last all summer?


Hi:

I am wondering what colorful shade plants you've found that bloom all
summer long?  I get so tired of having to plant annuals each year to be
sure of having something in bloom in my shade garden.  This garden
consists of heucheras, astilbes, and hostas.  The oriental lilies are
being moved to the backyard this week because they are much too tall for
the size of the shrubs behind them.  I'm trying to scale down my garden
plants a bit.  I need a colorful plant that stands no more than about 2
feet tall and blooms July-August.  Any suggestions?
