VIDEO: Planting a SHADE GARDEN with Colorful Annuals ??? || Garden Answer

July 18, 2024/in Blog, Garden Answer

 

Do you have shady spots in your garden that you don’t know how to utilize? Watch as Laura from Garden Answer demonstrates how to plant annuals in shaded areas to create vibrant, lush spaces. Whether under a tree or by your house, these tips and plant combinations will help you make the most of those low-light areas.

The Perfect Plant Mix for Shady Areas

Laura’s Plant selection:

  • Sedona Sunset Colorblaze Coleus: Adds a warm autumn touch, blending beautifully with pinks.
  • Tropical Shades Impatiens: Though labeled orange, they turned out a stunning coral pink.
  • Non-Stop Joy Mocha White Begonia: With tuberous blooms and beautiful foliage.
  • Queen Tut Grass: A compact centerpiece with a fireworks texture.
  • Patricia Ivy: Perfect for containers, though tricky in-ground planting.

When planting, Laura trusts Espoma Organic Potting Soil Mix and Bio-tone Starter Plus to provide her plants with the best possible growing medium and nutrients for successful establishment and growth.

Location 1: The Front Yard

Laura started with a small area in front of Limelight Hydrangeas. The plan was to layer Sedona Sunset Coleus for a vibrant splash of color, followed by Impatiens in the front. She also rejuvenated a nearby container with Queen Tut and Begonias, creating a clean and beautiful display.

Location 2: Under the Golden Rain Tree

This spot receives morning and late afternoon sun. Laura chose Colorblaze Coleus, part-shade to shade Impatiens, and Maverick White Geraniums for the sunnier areas. The result was a cohesive look that harmonized with the surroundings.

Location 3: The Maple Tree Area

This shady spot near the kitchen entrance required a cleanup first. Laura then planted El Brighto Coleus, White Begonias, and Wire Vine. The combination not only filled the space but added layers of color and texture, creating a container-like effect.

Final Thoughts:

Planting in shady areas can be challenging, but with the right plants and arrangements, you can transform these spaces into lush, colorful parts of your garden. Keep an eye on the light levels and choose versatile plants that thrive in varying conditions. Happy planting!
