I am planning to plant a garden in the shady area around the back of my house which will include primrose and lily of the valley. I also wanted to use some ground coverings and was looking at Cyclamen and Tradescantia. Can I plant both of these (since they bloom at different times) or will one choke the other one out? And if I have to chose, which is more managable - in other words, more containable?
Help with Shade Plantings?
Both are great, plant them a little farther apart to keep seperate. Blooming at different times promises more variety and a longer %26quot;window%26quot; of blooms. Hostas and impatiens are also nice and tolerate shade well.
Reply:both are good
Reply:We have planted hostas and have great luck. Be careful though, as there are many varieties and once you buy one, it becomes an addiction.
