Spruce up Shade
Shady yards can be a challenge to garden in, but also an opportunity. Imagine sitting in your favorite outdoor chair with a drink after work. The sun is hot, but there’s a cooling canopy of trees overhead. All you need to turn this pleasant experience into a restful retreat is a beautiful view that looks good season after season. Take a look at the combos here to find plants that thrive in shade and can turn a ho-hum yard into a haven you return to again and again.
