[quote=Anonymous]PP here again. Be sure to consider varying shades of green on all the foliage because you will not always have blooms. Make sure there are different greens and textures as well. Pulmonaria does very well in the shade garden and has beautiful foliage, as does japanese painted fern. Do not expect to finish this in one season. You should wait to see how well these plants do next to each other before you go too far. Some plants require more sun, some more water. It will depend entirely on your space so you will be moving things around. A plant may struggle the first year and come back full and beautiful the next. Remember, they are establishing a root system initially so don't be discourage if they don't 'take off' right away.[/quote]
