HI All,

I'm looking for suggestions for some plants for troughs and pots that will
be ok in some very shady areas in my garden (NW facing). Ideally they need
to be pretty hardy and tolerant of kids and some likely neglect. Equally
they need to be relatively easily available as I'm not able to venture too
far from N11 in North London.

One further question, does anyone know where I can get hold of some lovage?

Thanks!

Visit me - I have some spare. You could grow it from seed.

Pelargoniums are tolerant of shade.
