I have two large flowerbeds in my garden that both get the sun for about half the day. The rest of the time they’re in shade. The soil type is clay.
Things that do well here are salvia, roses, hebe, lavender and fuchsia. I like all of these plants as they look lovely, are very low maintenance and just seem to do their thing each year!
Can anyone recommend any other plants like these that will just come back year after year looking nice with minimum maintenance required?
Also, when is the best time to plant them - will I have to wait until spring? I have some big gaps in the flower beds that I’m hoping to fill.
Thanks!
