Native Garden Design: Shade Area

Native Garden Design: Shade Area

Blue Wood Aster

Do you know the areas where the grass just won’t grow, like under trees, where all you seem to be able to grow are weeds? That is the perfect spot for a shade bed! These plants are made for the shade, bringing season-long color and texture to that otherwise desolate area. No more weak lawns and clouds of dust from the mower. This garden brings beauty and intent to the hard-to-plant, shady areas.

The Garden Design

How To Use Our Garden Design Guidelines:

Our Native Perennial Garden Designs are made for a 100-square-foot area. The suggested placement and number of plants appear as circles on the bird’s-eye view (left). The side-view silhouette (right) shows the structure of each plant and the way the garden is layered.

The designs can be multiplied to fill a larger space or combined with other designs to help you achieve your garden goals. For example, the Pollinator Powerhouse Garden Design and the Hummingbird Garden Design can be combined to create a display of bright blooms and equally colorful visitors.
