Shade loving plants are essential to every garden. We all have at least one or two dark corners of our yard that we would all like to brighten up with flowers. Shadow flowers come in different types. Some flowers can withstand partial shade of the sun, others not as much as any sun. Be sure to check the tags that come with make sure you buy the flowers you buy the right kind of flower shade.
One thing that many gardens like around the shade of the flower is that it usually has larger leaves than sun-loving plants. Larger leaves help the plant to receive maximum benefit from the light which in turn helps with the process of photosynthesis (making food). If you decide to decorate the area using just foliage plants try to alternate between different types, colors and shapes of plants.
The best place to find a dark area is usually under a tree or under a wall. Plants placed in such places can also handle dry shade. Ivy is a good plant choice for a place like this.
