Hi everyone...have a question I need answered...if someone could help.
I am in Zone 3 - Northwestern Ontario.
My back yard faces East - along the North side is the fence (4 feet high and rather "solid" - not much spacing between boards. The sun is on the "other" side of that fence - leaving a "shady strip" where my flower bed is (runs the whole length of that fence).
Is this area considered Shady or Partly Shady??
THREE different employees at the greenhouses I was in (yep...asked them all....) said that plants wanting "sun to partial shade" would be fine there - they suggested:
- Calamintha grandiflora "variegata"
- Paeonia
- Bleeding heart
- Balloon Flower - Platycodon grandiflorum
I am not so sure.
Thank you in advance for any input.
