I found this website and I thought it may be of some interest to those with shady areas.

I have seen quite a few of those plants around here. I live right next to a wetland. The Celandine Poppy is easy to get seeds from. I will save seeds if you want them.

Labrador violet is a pretty plant with small deep purple violets that bloom in the spring. They do well in the shade too.

Your kitty is so cute. Does he/she like to garden too?

I found some rose bushes at Walmart that like a lot of shade and 3-4 hours of sun! What a find!
