Plants for shade > Perennials E - K

Epipactis

Epimedium
A question of two groups: the old European species are happy in a drier soil, but the Chinese species are very much plants for a humus rich moisture retentive, but not boggy, spot in some shade. Some will prefer a sheltered spot to flush them into flower in Spring.

Erythronium
A very lovely genus, available as bulbs.

Euphorbia

Galanthus
Snowdrops will be sent out in the green during comparatively mild weather in Spring. Please order at any time and the snowdrops may be sent separately from other parts of any order.

Galium

Gentiana

Geranium
A wide ranging group of plants that give an enormous amount to the garden. Those listed here are herbaceous and tolerant of some shade and in many cases very dry situations. Geraniums are great garden plants which flower over such a long time.

Geum

Gillenia
Exceptionally beautifull North American woodlanders which do well in some sun in the UK. Common name Indian physic to do with its medicinal properties

Glaucidium
A monotypic member of the poppy family

Gunnera

Hacquetia

Helleborus
A wide range of singles and doubles for your interest. We can try and send colours to order but obviously out of flower we can't be sure. They are all from line bred hand pollinated strains which do give very consistent results.

Heloniopsis

Hepatica
Hepatica is a charming plant for the woodland garden, some are easier than others. Japanese cultivars are really only suitable for pot culture but many of the European woodland species and forms make good garden plants.

Heuchera

x Heucherella

Hosta
A group of plants from 60cm tall and wide to 2m across, we tend to list the distinct good doers.

Hydrophyllum

Hylomecon

Impatiens

Iris

Jeffersonia

Kirengeshoma
