these words:

Geranium pheum survives well in a very shady position.

One more question, or two before the onslaught of fantastic
suggestions:- is your bed against a wall/fence and which way is it
facing.

The bed is about two foot from front of building facing north....Thanks



So it's not in the rain shadow of the house TOO much. That's to your
plants' advantage.

Hope they all do help you but remember that local knowledge - if it's well
founded - is very valuable. You could look at neighbours' gardens, talk to
knowledgeable nursery or gc staff, see what's planted in local parks etc.
Will you let us know how you get on? It's always interesting to hear that.
