Tricyrtis certainly would work, unless you've got bunnies. Have you considered some of the shade-loving grasses which carry beautiful foliage all summer long. Here are a few: #1 hakonechloa All Gold. #2 a white-striped liriope. #3 a golden liriope (PeeDee Ingot) shown next to some mondo grass for contrast. |
