Our collection of full shade plants is perfect for bringing color, texture, and life to areas with little to no direct sunlight. Whether you’re planting under trees or along north-facing walls, these shade-loving varieties thrive where others won’t.
Which Full Shade Plants Are Right for You?
Not sure where to start? Here’s a quick guide:
Full Sun: These plants love shade—skip this section and focus on what thrives without direct sunlight.
Shade Areas: Go for Hellebores or Ferns for bold texture, or try Astilbe for vibrant blooms in low light.
Deer-Resistant Options: Add Heuchera (Coral Bells) or Toad Lily—beautiful and less likely to be snacked on.
Great for Pollinators: Astilbe and Ligularia attract bees and butterflies, even in shady corners.
Cold-Hardy Choices (Zone 4+): Brunnera and Hellebores are tough enough for northern climates and return year after year.
