Mt perennial wallflowers are thriving in this pretty much shaded area. Usually get loads of slugs in this area but so far so good 👌 😊💜

@belindah I've only tried these this year it says partial shade I think they probably get some sun at some point but not much so fingers crossed I think you just learn by trying and seeing what works in your garden.. good luck 👍
