Examples of the combination of shade-loving plants in landscape design

How to create a harmonious composition of flowering plants? It is necessary to analyze each "candidate" and its characteristics, and try to create the perfect flower garden. Some of the good examples are:

• Green fern in one corner of the flower garden and the host in the other will become a wonderful green background for blooming heart-leaved tiara. If you add a small stone or snag to the composition, this will add to the effect of the flower bed.
• Cuff and clefthoof will be good neighbors on an alpine slide.

Excellent solution for furnishing shady place in the garden - turning it into cozy area recreation. It will be so pleasant to be here in a moment of sweltering heat. To make it beautiful and comfortable in a shady corner, you will need to choose special plantings for it.

The brightness and beauty of certain types of shrubs helps to create not only beautiful plot, but also the right mood for the day

For good growth and development, all plants need light. But the requirements for the degree of illumination can be different. All plants can be divided into:

• Shade-loving;
• Shade-tolerant;
• Light-loving.

So the light-loving shrub planted in the shade will not die, but it will not please the eye with lush greenery. Therefore, for those parts of the garden where there is little sun, it is necessary to select shade-loving shrubs that can develop well in conditions of insufficient lighting.

Differences between shrubs and trees

Shrubs for landscape design are always in demand. Therefore, nurseries will always offer you a large selection of these wonderful plants. They are usually inexpensive and are guaranteed to buy attractive plants for your garden.

There are transitional forms between the bush and the tree. The main difference is the presence of a central trunk, from which numerous branches extend. For example, hazel, holly, some willows, hawthorn can be grown both in tree form and bush form. It all depends on pruning and growing conditions.

So the dark crimson forest beech, if you periodically cut it off and adjust its growth, turns into a shrub and can be used to form a beautiful hedge. Such a hedge will not shed its brown leaves for the winter. If allowed to grow freely, it will turn into a tree.

Choice of shade-loving inhabitants

To achieve the desired result, you must seriously approach the choice of shrubs. Some plant species require special soil composition. For example, rhododendrons, azaleas and camellias love acidic soil.

Since for the most part shade-tolerant species come from the forest, then, when planting them, it is imperative to take care of the composition of the soil. The soil mixture should be fertile and neutral in acidity. In this case, the plants will easily take root and quickly turn into a lush bush.

It will be less costly to choose shrubs for your garden that grow well in your area. Otherwise, you will have to spend a lot of time creating favorable conditions for them.

Think in advance about the planting site, they should not be crowded. Choose shrubs based on their height. Shade-loving undersized ornamental shrubs are good for decorating and strengthening embankments. The shape and size and flowering of most shrubs are controlled regular pruning branches.

Space between bushes can be filled with creeping plants or shade-tolerant flowers. This is both beautiful and will prevent the soil from drying out unnecessarily. Lilies of the valley will look very good. In spring they will delight you with delicate and fragrant flowers, and in summer and autumn - with juicy, beautiful leaves. Lily of the valley has the ability to grow rapidly, and you do not have to think about planting them additionally every year.

No less attractive is the rare Alpine honeysuckle with bright red fruits and a very dense crown.

The amazing "Poppy" can grow as a small tree. Edible honeysuckle is also popular, which is more appreciated for its early, spicy bitter and very healthy berries.

Flowering shrub

Of course, sunlight is still required for any vegetable, but even if it falls on the site only for a while or penetrates through the foliage, for some types of vegetables this will be quite enough. Almost all greens grow beautifully in the shade: leafy salads, spinach, sorrel, horseradish, rhubarb, parsley, dill, cilantro, celery and mint. Onions grow well in the shade, including leeks, garlic. These plants only need regular watering and 4-5 hours of sunshine a day. They like shade beans, upright beans and peas. Root crops - radishes, radishes, beets and carrots, as well as the whole cruciferous family: white cabbage, Chinese cabbage, cauliflower and broccoli - feel great in shaded places under fruit trees. Weed these vegetables regularly and plant them in rows in an east-west direction so that they get the maximum amount of diffused sunlight even in the shade. In the southern regions, some varieties, usually sun-loving, grow well in partial shade: zucchini, cucumbers and tomatoes. Lack of sun can only postpone the ripening period somewhat, but will not affect their taste and size in any way.
