Have you got a shady spot in the garden you want to plant out? 

Often we also have shady areas around the home that tend to be forgotten about, however planting out your shady areas like alongside the house, can really give a lift to an area that may have been left behind.


SOME TIPS ON KEEPING YOUR SHADE PLANTS HEALTHY -


> Exposing some of these plants to sun can damage their foliage so be sure that their position is shady
> Be careful not to over water.  Shade dwellers don't need as much water as those that are positioned in the sun as they retain their water for longer.
