Ok, I have an area on our property that's fairly well shaded. It's on the
side of the house, along a walkway, and on the side opposite the house is a
nice, long line of honeysuckle bushes.

This area really doesn't get much in the way of direct sun at all. Some
times it's a little dappled (late afternoon) but otherwise the light is all
indirect. It's just dark enough that the area will not grow any grass but
some weeds manage to pop up over there (ragweed, poison ivy, etc.) as well
as mulberry seedlings and honeysuckle seedlings. So it ain't dark enough
that nothing will grow.

I would like to plant a perennial along this walkway that flowers --
preferably one that has a flower with lots of great fragrance as it's right
outside the bedroom.

Anyone have any suggestions?

I've got some four o'clocks growing in shade right now. Nothing has
started blooming yet, but they are the same size as the ones in full sun.
