Beautiful Foliage Plants for Part Shade! 🌿⛅️😍// Garden Answer

[@joycehayhow8]

I had to share this story....I was at my local nursery yesterday after watching this video. My basket was full of the plants you talked about as I’m in the middle of redoing my shade bed and I loved the plant selection you used. A very nice lady in line behind me asked, “Did you watch Laura today? She used all these plants”. Kansas is well represented! Thanks for all the inspiration!

[@dorenenagy564]

You have such a talent for putting plants together. You are making such a beautiful landscape for your home. Benjamin should know every plant there is as he grows up. No strange plants to him, mommy has them all! lol See you in the next one!

[@amanda_bnrn]

I have never been a person interested in gardening or flowers (not even for my birthday!), but since finding your channel I have strangely become SO enthusiastic about planting a garden, shrubs and hedges on our property to increase curb appeal. I planted a miss kim lilac and an annabelle hydrangea and it was so relaxing! :) Thank you for your wonderful content!

[@VanessaKrystynaBeauty]

I have never seen such a beautiful bed of shaded plants. The colors go together so well 😍

[@eamonnszwec2228]

Would love summer time to see how now this plants design grow....

[@joyceukwigan4422]

Love your videos but I live in the UK and have a way, way, way smeller garden but do like to use your ideas. You inspire me. 😍

[@lindamartin2766]

Justtt beautiful!!! I loveeee your videos!!!!!

[@sheilamuleadygirardi]

I actually like the smaller maple tree between the pines...looks more bushy than tree and the size looks more in proportion to the other plants. Great plants, great colors....love your videos, as always!!!

[@kimlundquist3475]

I was surprised you planted under a pine trees. I always heard nothing will grow. Nice to know you can

[@explaincauseidontgetit3294]

Because of my budget, I solely depend on perennial texture and color of foliage to make it unique. I absolutely enjoy it! And I absolutely love your tips, I follow them all!

[@eileenchang2173]

Thank you for inserting the plant tags as you introduce the plants! Lovely planting as usual!

[@Lilly-Etheridge]

I could just watch you videos 24/7 on repeat!!

[@rosemarybrando5625]

Me too!

[@christibender2525]

Oh yes, she's responsible for many a tired morning for me! Love all the goodness!

[@agood1]

yup I pretty much do!!

[@antoniastridsberg6748]

The tiny blue flowers on the Queen of hearts are adorable ☺️😍💙

[@Bamboo4U2]

Yeah and I love forget-me-nots but they're aggressive so this plant (the brunnera) is a great way to get that color without the hassle of a thug in your garden.

[@hondaqueen21]

Laura I can watch you plant everyday for the rest of my life. Thanks for the great quality videos 😍😍😍

[@NhH-zu8lv]

You are a gardening goddess! Absolutely love your videos.

[@charlottedenton1190]

Dang. Gives the feeling of a thriving forest floor. I could sit there all day. Absolutely beautiful.

[@marcygriffo9904]

I recently got two small Japanese maples and have questions about potting them up. I have done one of them but I'd LOVE IT if you include the one in the gazebo in a video soon. SO HAPPY with all I have learned from you, Laura. Thank you and Aaron's editing and filming just gets better and better. You'll have your own TV channel in a few years!

[@sueknee8813]

The lemon lace elderberry is absolutely beautiful against the Japanese Maple.A gorgeous planting.

[@daracobb530]

I watch this video over and over, every Plant is on my purchase list

[@jaynemar1]

The purple huechera really sets off the yellow in the hostas

[@samanthab3292]

That wildberry in purple is beautiful!!

[@MegalomaniaHere]

I used to dislike shade plants, I'm all about the big flowers. But since I've seen you planting them in combos they look so pretty 👍

[@judithsigler9644]

GORGEOUS! I have areas much like this so off to the Garden Center! Can’t wait to “play n’ plant in the dirt”!! :-). Look forward to YOUR PLANTING PROGRESSIONS n’ MINE, too! :-))))

[@carolbeatty2468]

Ah the morning and coffee with Laura the best way to start the day! I am also so excited because I picked up some Brunnera the other day and can't wait to get it in the ground!

[@jackiew3146]

Beautiful combinations of plants and hues.

[@faycouch5247]

That area looks beautiful! I struggle with getting the right plants for mainly shade, thanks for the ideas, it’s very helpful.

[@debrabennett7773]

Yes same here! It's a bit frustrating.

[@amywilliams3690]

I especially appreciate the shade plant videos! The majority of the beds around my house are shade to part shade. Thanks for the great ideas! 😊

[@karoncrickmore2093]

Queen of Hearts is a definite for next year. I can’t wait to see this area in 6 weeks!

[@landenhurbi4748]

You speak so clear that the captions come out very nice! It's also nice to see a video on shade plants. Can't wait until I have a yard to plant up.

[@Davena]

Amazing planting considering it's under two pine trees! Wow! Very nice.

[@lisawalters5482]

Gorgeous bed under that tree. Anything you do with lime green and then the maple, I am in love with. Beautiful. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[@miam.w.4623]

Another beautiful planting combo! I simply LOVE the Dolce ‘Wildberry’ Heuchera with its delicate flower spikes and lovely deep purple color, the glowy nature of the Autumn Frost Hosta and Lemony Lace Elderberry, the sweetness of the heart-shaped Queen of Hearts Beunnera, All set ablaze by the richness of Bloodgood acer. Amazing!

[@MissSandraK]

Thank you, that has given me a blueprint for my pine tree understory!

[@rebeccawoodbixler9536]

Wonderful layering of plants. Fabulous choice of music. 💚🌿😊

[@katrinalau4137]

Love that you are making your yard spaces permanent!!! It is looking so good!

[@Bamboo4U2]

And never mind the costs of using so many annuals. it's also the time and work you have to put into it each and every year. I'm glad she's planting more perennials.

[@lizmasi9918]

I live in az and our yard I have started planting lots of trees for the canopy. Also working on my hardscape and patio covers. Even though I have shrubs I want to be able to bring flowering plants in undergrowth. I enjoy your videos very much. I also love your benches throughout your yard. I have done that also.

[@kamiifae]

Drinking wine and watching your videos

[@w.bovgvereav5761]

Gorgeous Choices ! My Attention Is Especially On The Brunnera . . . Really Lovely !

[@katediy4563]

One of my favorite shade-loving plants. I hope this variety is more hardy than others. I've not had luck with 'Jack Frost' or others on the north-side of my garage garden. They start out full and gorgeous and then thin out in subsequent seasons. I love their little blue flowers.

[@w.bovgvereav5761]

@@katediy4563 ~ I Hope To Find The ' Queen Of Hearts ' Variety In My Area, Next Year. I'll Be Scouting Early For It. The Entire Plant Has So Much Going For It . . . And I Agree, The Delicacy Of The Little Blue Blooms, Are An Absolute Delight !

[@samanthairish8467]

love this! just ordered wild berry Heuchera for a new shade garden. watching your videos is really making my plant list grow! i keep a pad of note paper and a pen handy while i watch.

[@MomDroogs]

The color contrast is stunning!!

[@VirginiaHale]

Love, love, love your choice of colors. It turned out beautiful, just beautiful. Can't hardly wait for the tour to see every thing & how it's doing. How are your little ladies doing? I bet they are growing up to be just beautiful.

[@flyingpigpreserve8562]

That really made the area pop. Enjoyed for sure

[@jacdavis9]

Stunning color contrasts and texture variation - wow!

[@robinduke3184]

I’m so glad I found your channel! I so enjoy it.

[@zinnia797]

Loved this video, it would be awesome for you to do a new shade/part shade plant video! Thank you for all of your knowledge! ! Much love

[@bluesky7226]

Beautiful composition.

[@louisethomas8074]

I hope she starts encouraging plants that are native to your area. It’s necessary for the health and endurance of our environment

[@zullylozano1840]

I love shade plantings. 👍

[@theeapco]

What a gorgeous area!!

[@kendycruz7389]

Going back on old videos so happy i found this ... we have a super long path way it has pine trees along the side and been looking for something pretty to plant. This is perfect . Stay safe :)

[@hereynol1]

Garden tour! Garden tour! Garden tour! 😊

[@Bamboo4U2]

Well, if we don't get it today or tomorrow that means Laura skipped May. Very sad. Very, very sad.

[@kimgurley472]

So beautiful! Great ideas for some shady corners of my back yard!!! Love!!

[@BelindaShanle]

Perfect timing, I was wanting more perennials to replace annuals in a shaded are under a tree😃

[@sandyg8794]

Hi Laura and Aaron! What a beautiful choice of plants/tree and colors! They look so good together and with the Hostas. Thank you for sharing!

[@susanlivingston6900]

Just beautiful.

[@susanpeterson9947]

Gorgeous combination of colors for your shady spot!

[@wholesalesoapbars8024]

Just the video I was waiiting to watch! Thank you so much for making this video available.

[@fannieallen6005]

You are so talented and knowledgeable!

[@kaylabryson1932]

Video so beautifully done ... love the music and all the shots

[@shibijose]

So beautiful! Thanks Laura for introducing us to beautiful plant combinations.

[@lindahopkin8597]

Your color combo are always the best very showy

[@j.m.7056]

Outstanding combination!

[@mariadi1069]

The other day I saw you vid from your last garden, compared your now you show so much confidentiality and I love that, very well done, God bless you

[@anafindlay1696]

Thank you Laura another beautiful combination for shade all the colors complement each other ❤️❤️💕

[@teacupyorkies9458]

I love that pine tree 🌲

[@anniemedlin1722]

Absolutely love the foliage and colors you used. I so wish I had shade.

[@pamketron]

Love the color combos of the leaves. Japanese Maples are some of my favorite trees. The Elderberry is amazing. Love this area.

[@keash8663]

Extremely beautiful selection of plants 🌱 👍🏽❤️

[@barbll000]

Fabulous foliage and colour combination for that area. Great video. I love Brunnera. I've had the plain and variegated leaf plants and it is so easy to care for and spreads nicely. Over the years I've given away lots of it and transplanted it to all the shade areas both front and back. It's literally the first thing to bloom in spring which is always a welcome sight.

[@ThatgirlinSeattle]

I love that Brunnera.

[@robinrummel1359]

Absolutely gorgeous! I love the variety of plants and color combinations. ☺️

[@wendycash54]

I can't really afford to do a lot of annual plantings in the ground every year, so I really shoot for perennials and year after year my garden looks better and better. Its always fun to see what comes up every year, like Christmas! Thanks as always for a great video!

[@elmaelmar2761]

WOW that is going to look so beautiful!!

[@shirleyhawkins1307]

So pretty! Love the colors.

[@judithjohnson2111]

I Love the colors of those plants. They all look so pretty there. 🌸🌿🌲💗

[@StaceyHerewegrowagain]

Gorgeous as always!!! You have such an amazing talent!!🌻🐝 Thank you so much for sharing this with us!! You've really done such a great job!!

[@SweetStuffOnMonarchLane]

Foliage consideration is one of my knowledge weak points in gardening (I always go for the bloom wow-factor!) Thank you for the lesson today! It's really cool how those greens bring the eye forward, and the purples recede into the background. Very beautiful!

[@rakgaditumi3828]

It turned out soooooo beautiful! 🥰

[@judyedwards7597]

Can't wait for that Brunnera to come out next year...really pretty. I appreciate you talking about your thoughts behind plant placement & enjoy these videos so much!

[@lindagarrido4448]

Hi Laura, I really enjoyed this video, especially the shot of the finished project with the gazebo in the background. Your garden is truly a work of art. Thanks for all the info and work you put into the videos.

[@glendayelverton1208]

Always enjoy!👍

[@heatherbright7214]

Love everything.

[@hhoversonhh]

Beautiful combination of colors and textures. Thankyou!

[@krosa2471]

There was a house down the street from my childhood home that had a Japanese Maple planted right next to a pink Dogwood. The mixture of the dark leaves of the maple and the pink flowers of the dogwood was perfection.

[@LiyanaDIY]

Beautiful, all compliment eachother x

[@donniellecarney7067]

Watching your videos makes me so excited about my own gardens!! I don’t have the shade/part shade areas (yet) that your gardens have, but one day I will and I am so excited about redoing my gardens when that happens!!! Thank you for all of the education you provide on so many plants!!

[@routex1]

Nice arrangement

[@malba411]

We have been rethinking lots of our planting beds and have replaced annuals with a lot more perannuals because we are aging and it is getting more difficult. You give us lots of ideas. Thank you. Xoxox

[@tifartifar7979]

beautiful garden i like it

[@reallygraceful]

Gorgeous! I just did one of my shade gardens in all heuchera and hostas.

[@reallygraceful]

ps you've got me hooked and snobby over PW brand plants. I just got some PW everbearing strawberries that were in your recent vids. :)

[@maddoxzakai2479]

i realize I am kinda off topic but does anyone know of a good place to watch newly released movies online ?

[@josephlewis347]

@Maddox Zakai Flixportal

[@maddoxzakai2479]

@Joseph Lewis thank you, I signed up and it seems like they got a lot of movies there =) Appreciate it!

[@josephlewis347]

@Maddox Zakai No problem :D

[@jojohnston4113]

Lovely shade garden. Wish we had space for one but our small yard is mostly sunny to full sun. Thanks for sharing!

[@anngriffith7932]

Finally found Lemony Lace elderberry in my area. Eager to get them planted!

[@shellslaraine9295]

I knew when you planted the elderberry in a pot , that some way, some how ,that was going in the garden, its so pretty..we needed to see more of it, and I'm glad we have in this video . A beautiful combination of plants, between the Japanese maple all the way to the hosta.

[@starsong7725]

One of the few planting and color combinations that I actually love!🌿❤

[@richardvillgarden3971]

Beautiful hostas. I also planted some hostas last year and they came back this year beautifully. I want more permanent plants too 😉

[@tiffinyharrington9307]

Very inspiring! We live in SWMichigan - zone 5 as well, but as you’ve been a frequent visitor to our state, you well know we have a very humid climate and our winters have been very cold these past two years. Our yard has a good deal of shade - we have a neighbor’s Norway Maple that is at our fence and is so dense now that many of the perennials I’ve planted over the years have been lost. I’m now revamping the entire backyard and needed ideas. We have areas of full shade to dappled shade to blazing hot afternoon full sun. Love the combo you’ve selected! And I can’t wait to see the next planting - I saw lots of containers in the background of this video! Your taste is very similar to mine and my mother’s - she has dementia now, but would so enjoy your channel.

[@roslynshaw7103]

Beautiful..now I know what to do for my trees.

[@sherribenson1]

Love the Elderberry color against the purple. I think it’s hard to get dark colors to show up in landscapes and the chartreuse (sometimes white) plants helps them shine. Now to look for Elderberry for my landscape. Thanks for the inspiration.

[@Tom-gardenplants1849]

So beautiful garden ^^

[@marthafigueroa4686]

Looks amazing love it.
