Default North facing aspect

Could anybody advise me on what shrubs/plants I can use on a North facing
bed which has a six feet high fence.
The area receives virtually no sun until mid Summer,when it gets a couple of
hours.
I have planted Fatsia japonica, and hellebores which do really well,the
heuchere's are struggling,and the primulas seem OK
Daffs. give colour right now,the Tulips all perished,
My soil is neutral to alkaline,so acid loving plants are out.
I have spent a fortune on so called 'Hardy Perenials' which have not
survived ,
Any advice gratefully received!!
Thanks
Colin
