My small yard doesn't have much space for shade unfortunately so it's not all the time I get to enjoy beautiful plants that thrive in lower light conditions.
However, my lovely Mother In Law, Cathy, has a larger property with lots of wooded spaces that are just perfect for some of these beautiful plants. If you find yourself with a lot of shaded space and in need of some plant inspiration, look no further! Here are some great finds from Cathy's garden.

| Rhododendron bushes are a beautiful understory shrub, particularly great if you have acidic soil. |
 |
| Sweet Woodruff is a lovely ground cover for shade. |
 |
| Pieris on the left and foam flowers on the lower right also enjoy lower light conditions. |
 |
| Ferns and hosta's are classic choices for shade. |
 |
| There are other uses for shady spots in the lawn, like play areas for your grandchildren! |
Do you have great plant choices for shade? Please share them in the comments below!
Wow! I'm so flattered you chose our yard!
