The plants are hardy and will grow in half-shade or sun. they grow to about 1 foot high (30 cm) and flower in late spring to early summer. you can grow them from seeds sown in pots in spring and transplant them into fertile and moist, but well-drained soil..
For these gardens, look for plants designated for part sun (or part shade.) full shade. however, if your garden is located on the north side of your house or shaded by a dense tree canopy, you�ll need to choose your plants adapted to full shade.. Most gardens have shaded areas created by buildings, walls, fences or tall trees. too often these areas contain a few sad looking plants quite unsuitable for the conditions. however there are a number of attractive garden shrubs which will happily grow in shade.. If a plant is listed as partial shade, the plant will need some relief from the intense heat of late afternoon sun. you can easily accomplish this either by planting where a nearby tree will cast afternoon shade or by planting on the east side of a building, which will be blocked from direct afternoon sun..
