I've got a raised area next to a wall at the back of my garden that
hardly gets any sun. I have no idea what to do with it but I'm thinking
about planting some shrubs that don't mind poor light. Does anyone have
any ideas or know what shrubs / plants do well in low light?


I am a rank newbie myself, but we have a bed a bit like that, and there
hydrangeas do spectacularly well - we've got some lacy white ones that
just glow in the shade, and some with pale pink flowerheads and dark red
stems that are also interesting in winter. Have forgotten the names,
but can find out if nec.
