I'm not a very good gardener - what can I plant up my north facing
fence at the bottom of my garden? It's about 20 - 30 ft from the
house - I can only think of clematis and ivy - is there anything
else that's easy - the fence is about 6 ft high - I promise I'll keep
them watered
Think of all those shade-lovers that you have a hard time siting
out of the sun: hostas, fuchsias, begonias, various woodland
plants, etc. Also the bigger lilies, which like cool feet but
heads in the sun. Martagon lilies especially seem to appreciate
shady conditions.
