Made in the Shade: Is Your Garden a Low-Light Zone? Here's How to Turn It into a Cool, Green Retreat — Better Homes & Gardens
In the shade of large oak trees, Better Homes & Gardens Test Garden® manager Sandra Gerdes plants hostas and other perennials in drifts for a sense of movement, with leaf colors and textures rather than flowers driving most of the design. In a foliage-heavy border, a large shrub that looks good through several seasons gives you a focal point. Here, ‘Incrediball’ hydrangea’s white flowers brighten the scene in summer, fading to rosy pink that lasts into the fall.
