What would you do with this patch of garden?

[LarryGreysonsDoor]

You can’t see it from the house and represents about an eighth of the total garden.
There are a lot of tree both in my garden and in the park/wood that we back onto.
It is very shady, cool and dry.

I know there is a couple of windows in the picture but that it just outbuildings, not the house.

Could make it into a woodland garden. Lots of stumps, wood chip and pretty woodland flowers perhaps?

Woodland garden. Shrubs that like shade. Rhododendrons, hellebores, bulbs, lots of bulbs. You lol probably need to put some manure down first. You can also plant up some bright planters with ,ore eye catching stuff that you start off in the sun and then move in there to improve the view at certain times of the year.

Hostas too....

And a climber on the outbuilding and a bench or something that draws your eye through to the end ...

I'm planning a similar bit of garden OP and found this a brilliant resource: www.rhs.org.uk/advice/profile?pid=934

I'm turning mine into a little woodland garden, with a range of heights and plants that will be interesting year round.

A woodland garden sounds great!

Plants that are happy in my cool, shady border are: acers (Beni Maiko as garden is small; colourful in spring and in autumn), Epimedium (for ground cover; there are evergreen and deciduous types), hellebores and ferns (Polystichum polyblepharum).
