PLANTS FOR SHADY PLACES 
The following plants will do well in shady or semi-shady locations. Some 
will stand more shade than others. Good rich peaty soil is always desirable. 
If your problem is unusually difficult because of heavy shade, we suggest a 
consultation on the grounds, at which time we will gladly suggest recommended 
plant materials, and soil conditioning when necessary. It should be noted that 
most of the species in this list will also do very well in sunny locations where 
soil conditions are suitable.
