Woodland Kit
Common name: For Full Shade Areas
Adding color to shaded areas of the garden (areas that receive less that 4 hours of sun per day) can be a challenge. Our Woodland Kit offers a variety of shade tolerant species that also have a range of bloom times and colors. It covers roughly a 45 sq. foot area, with a few species selected that can fill in a bare area under a tree or overhang after establishing for 1-2 seasons.
We include the following species depending on availability. Substitutions may be necessary from time to time. Substitutes are chosen based on site suitability as well as general aesthetic and bloom time.
- (3) White Snakeroot- Ageratina altissima
- (2) Columbine- Aqualegia canadensis
- (3) Curly-Styled Wood Sedge- Carex rosea
- (3) Pussytoes- Antennaria plantiginifolia
- (3) Bottlebrush Grass- Elymus hystrix
- (2) Mist Flower- Conoclinium coelestinum
- (2) Shorts Aster- Symphyotrichum shortii
