I am planning my summer flowering annuals. I could use a few ideas for
a semi shady spot. Last year my zinnias and even nasturtiums were
reaching for the light. I am in a HOT summer region zone 8 in California.
Thanks

Could you define what you mean by "semi shade"?
Is it morning sun with afternoon shade
or light shade all day long, (under trees, shrubs?)
or north side of house, pretty deep shade?
