Thanks Peter. I love woodland plants so this corner of my garden is one of my favourites. I'm trying to make little woodland plantings mainly in my east border which only gets the sun first thing. I have a small garden, only about 30 feet square. I have several raised beds (desperately in need in painting!) and some alpine sinks. Thinking about getting rid off the lawn.... I cram in plants wherever I can. I inherited the mature camellias from my mother and they have been a wonderful reminder of her this spring - quite the best they have been although the flowers are fading now. What's your garden like? You say you are new to shade gardening - how come? Anyway this first one is the north border.
