Hi Everyone!

I am trying to find any type of flower that will grow and bloom in a complete shade garden. I just made this garden this year and what I have planted in it does not seem very happy...Does anyone have any suggestions?

The best things to plant in the shade are impatiens, caladiums, and hostas. They are always winners!

Nicely done. You may to think about anchoring it with some evergreeens ( for year-round interest then underplanting with flowers. ~Andrea
