Thank you Fionuala for sharing your wealth of knowledge - I enjoyed my visit to Cottage Gardens last week. All of the plants I purchased are such a lovely addition to my garden and I cannot wait to return again. I hope to see you again later this year! Have a wonderful summer! Thanks again!
So great to meet you Karla, and so glad you enjoyed your visit!! Glad your plants and Tuffits are making you happy! 🌸
Another great video. Most of my gardens are shade. Next ones to find are pulmunaria and lungworth. Thank you.
You’re going to love it!! 💚
Great video on shade loving plants, it was the bees knees.
Thank you! 🌸
Love the blue leaf/flower plant but cant hear the name. Can you please give name and details? Love your style!
Thank you so much! Now for the blue-leaf and flower plant - that beauty is Corydalis 'Blue Heron' Completely irresistible! 💙
I'm in south bay, so I'm hoping you can answer my question online. Part of my garden is east facing. Tall shrubs on our fence shade it all morning long and around 1-2 it's in sun the rest of the day - more like until around 6-7. Any ideas for perennials in such an exposure? or annuals?
You’re going to need to steer away from shade plants for a start unless you have a spot in your garden that’s the exact opposite of what you’ve described - sun all morning and shade from noon onwards! Your kind of exposure especially in the sunny South Bay counts as full sun. Those afternoon rays are pretty intense during the summer so you’ll want to plant just sun-loving perennials, shrubs and annuals.
@@fionualacampion5154 Thank you so much for the reply.
Wow! That blue flowering plant with cluster of bell/tubular flowers and with the green with hint of blue foliage! I couldn’t catch the name of that plant… could you please tell me?
I think the plant is a Corydalis.
It looks like the sign says Corydalis ‘Blue Heron’
@@leanca107 Thank you!

Thank you, most of my garden is shady! Are there any plants that survive in deep shade? I have a spot where the light is blocked by the neighbor's Laurel tree. It get just a bit of dappled light for a half hour. It was too dark for Astilbe. Zone 9a PNW.
When it is as shady as you describe, ferns might be the way to go, but luckily there are SO many outstanding ferns to choose from, in a range of forms and colors that will definitely make your shade garden pop! It's also worth trying Lamium 'White Nancy' - with its silvery foliage and white blooms, it should really brighten up your shade garden. 🌿
@CottageGardensofPetaluma Thank you! I appreciate you taking the time to answer my question. I have some silvery Lamium serving as the spiller in a mixed container. I'll transplant that when the season changes. I live your channel and your vibe.
