Hi Potties!

Katie - For your shade lovers - do you want evergreen or non-evergreen? If you want evergreen there are some junipers that are "sprawling" in body type, i.e.. are wider than they are high. Another evergreen that is less than 3 ft. tall are hellebores. They bloom in the dead of winter & spread with enthusiasm once they quit sulking about being moved. If non-evergreen will do, one of my personal favorites are hostas. They die back at 1st frost but reproduce by seed & spreading. They also bloom in mid-summer which all the pollinators appreciate. I would think the state agriculture folks would have lists of various types of shade lovers for the asking. Hope this helps a little.

Hope everybody is well. Not sure if Shelly is in the areas that have been flooding but hope not. Later.
