Collection: Shade tolerant plants

Not every garden basks in sun — and these plants are happiest out of it. Every variety here tolerates partial or full shade, making them ideal for north-facing borders, spots beneath trees, or shady courtyards where other plants struggle.

Shade plants often prefer moisture-retentive soil, so add organic matter and mulch. Browse our shade-tolerant trees, shrubs, hedging and perennials below.
