[quote=Anonymous]An area on the north side of a fence, if there is no other shade (from trees), will get more sun than you think in high summer. It’s tricky because it will be a short season, but full shade plants may fry if you’re not paying attention in July. There are a lot of natives that love the shade. But many are ephemeral. So you may need to decide if you want to embrace a “woodland” garden which is kind of how I think of native-dominant shade gardens, or if you want a more intensely planted space in which case the old standbys like hostas, ferns and astilbes will do well.
