This was extremely helpful . I have a hot shady patio that has killed So many plants ( I had nothing to do with it, lol ) , and this has pointed me in the direction👍🏻
Thanks so much! This was exactly what I needed to find plants for my shady, shady area. Can’t wait to get to the nursery!
I absolutely love Begonia’s plants every summer to autumn time , and again enjoy watching this video bcoz it does help by giving me more idea .
So very helpful. Thank you!!
Thank you! Good information. I’m in Sacramento and dry shade is my challenge!

Same! I’m in Sacramento too. I have a north facing porch that gets no sun, only bright light and it is always so hot during our summers. I end up resorting to some houseplants outside instead.
It would be very helpful to mention the zones for your selections.

Yes. I have no idea if any of these are hardy to southern Ontario zone or not???
Amazing and beautiful I like it carry on friend
hey there maria! this video is great! you should add hellebores to this list! ❤️🌿 I love the selection you guys have this year. I already bought one last week.
Excellent video!
Good info.Thanks.
Love your video
Dead nettles (Lamiums) are very attractive. They are also invasive non-natives, originating in Eurasia.

Not all of them are invasive. The yellow blooming ones definitely are (often called “archangel”) However lamium maculatum is usually well behaved. I’ve got a garden full of native plants but I’ve chosen Lamium “white Nancy” for some dry shade under a silver maple where dandelions, false strawberry, and weeds are trying to take over. I’m hoping this groundcover can out-compete these.
I wish I could save this video into a playlist for myself. Is there a setting you can enable?
i just bought a bunch of plants for my low maintenance/dry shade area and almost all of them are on this list. i'm feeling pretty ashured right now.
Very nice plants. How can I buy it?
New subscriber here😅
I have a variegated Lamium which is very nice but something is eating holes in the leaves.
Just the video I was looking for. Do you happen to know the name of the variegated Hosta you showed? I like your avoidance of certain common names.

@@thegonzalezs4953 I have the one AM Leo sells that holds a pruner & soil knife. Love it. You can buy it on its own or with their tools. I use a Felco #2 (their version is ok if you're not doing this kind of work often) and the AM Leo deluxe soil knife (which rocks). I think they have one that has a pouch for a folding saw, too. I keep my Silky saw separate in a Corona fabric pouch. Fits into it like a glove, and is less cumbersome than having a big, wide tool pouch on the belt, especially for days when I don't need the saw.

@@pamelah6431 Thanks so much for responding to me! I have a 5’x20’ bed under mature maple trees and would like shrubs and/or perennials, preferably with a “white” theme, nothing taller than about 4’. This used to be my white garden, mostly wonderful hostas, before deer moved in and chewed them to the ground. I currently have some brunneras, dryopteris ferns, and a few hellebores, all barely surviving. Any and all recommendations would be sincerely appreciated. ❤️
