and some ferns in the summer , but it looks drab and requires colour, most flowers i've put there have not flowered through lack of light.
What plants can I grow under a very shady pergola. I have primroses and bluebells for the winter,?
Hostas are good for this situation. The flowers aren't magnificent but the foilage colour makes up for that. Mahonia, Camellia and Helleborus are a few others. Mecanopsis does well in shade too.
Reply:You can try climbers such as different breeds of morning glories, which would climb the pergola to receive sufficient sunlight, and add dabs of colours to the structure. Grape vines and lily of the valley would also be lovely. If you must plant underneath the pergola, try plants that grow well in shades, such as other breeds of lilies, such as the Peace Lily or Calla Lily.
Reply:How about "MONKS HOOD" it grows in shady woods and in hedges.
Reply:begonias and impatients do good in the shade, hostas lily of the valley(poisonous) clematis
Reply:Violets. Pansies, and other violets too.
Keep trying. You'll find many things will work that maybe aren't expected to.
