I am in NYC, zone 7: I have hostas, I have Sarcococca aka fragrant Boxwood; have hardy gingers of different types (Mioga & low growing evergreen ones); rescued Solomon’s seal; I have evergreen false Lily of the Valley, I have had Brunnera but disappeared after three years, I have some rescue azaleas that I found on the street that are quite happy; I have a Chinese paper bush that in the summer will get an hour of sun; & a rescue Hydrangea that did well until last year (severe cold snap after weather in the 40s), Euonymus in a few places & scatterings of Liriope/Lily Turf.
Sounds like a very successful shady haven. Well done. Containers or in the ground plantings? Any special secrets you can share with others? Thx. Coach.
@@YardCoach All in the ground, I forgot to list Japanese Painted Ferns. I have some pots w/Hardy Geraniums, & Saxifrage, & I "fluff" them up w/annuals (Impatiens & Begonias).
THANK YOU! I have a 1989 built home and it's north facing too! I have had so many "shade" plants die over the years. I could really use more videos like this! My home is kind of a L shape or uneven U shape. One side get's a couple hours of morning sun, the side get's a couple hours afternoon and near the door get's NOTHING. It's hard to find plants that like these conditions and to have year round interest and pretty flowers.

@jorgehoran1691 JPFs are one of my favs in the fern world.
Great vid coach. I think a list of plants in the description might be helpful. I always look forward to your vids!
Thank you for the kind words. We’re amending the list and making it available in the D.
