The most beautiful shrubs for a flowerbed in partial shade
Whether the neighbor's hedge, the ancient apple tree with its broad crown or simply the house: There are many shady areas in the garden. Nevertheless, many of them are in the sun for about four to six hours a day, which is why one speaks of partial shade in these locations. Here many colorful shrubs feel well, which is why a flower bed does not always have to lie in the blazing sun.
Pay attention to the ground
However, before you put together the pasen plants, you should first take a closer look at the soil conditions at the desired location. Shady areas tend to be wetter and have a lower pH, which is why moisture tolerant plants should be preferred. However, there are also partially shaded to shady areas with rather dry soil, where you should choose a different plant selection.

Tips
Always try to select the plants to the respective environment and not vice versa to adapt the environment to the plant. To a certain extent, this is certainly possible (eg by the construction of a windbreak or a soil improvement), but you have more success and enjoyment with a careful selection.
