Can any advise on what are the best flowers to grow to attract
lacewings and ladybirds as I want to tackle the pests in my garden the
organic way.

Also are there any that will grow in the shade ?

Have a look at this site - I think you'll find it useful and interesting.
There's an interesting book on companion planting, too called (IIRC) Roses
Love Garlic.
