A Little Bit of Gardening Show – Shade Loving Plants

Posted on by

Most of us would prefer to have our gardens in a sunny position as we know it will give us more options for the use of the space and of course, more options for plants. However a shady position can offer a lot too, from the beauty of cool green spaces bathed in dappled shade to the charm of deep shade filled with richly textured foliage plants. So that is what I thought we could look at today – How to make the most of a shady garden or position.Tune in at 7.30pm on Monday, or 5.30pm on Wednesday, to find out more.
