[quote=Anonymous]We have a bank of azaleas (non-native, pretty sure) on a shaded slope in our backyard (in NOVA). I'm looking for two different shrubs, one to fill in the top of the slope that is very shaded by white oaks and beech trees. The bottom of the slope gets full sun most of the day. My ideas so far are common winterberry or common elderberry for the shaded part. Virginia sweetspire or bee balm for the sunny spot. I am a total novice, so comments on my ideas or alternate ideas are very welcome! Trying to prevent the erosion of this slope, support native wildlife, and also create some year round beauty in our yard. We are very low maintenance and realistically will not do more than prune once or twice a year and water to establish the shrub. [/quote]
