For Shady
Gardens
BY ISABEL FUCKER
Detroit Times Garden Editor

TODAY'S ARTICLE Is a
sequel TO yesterdays and will be
concerned with perennial flow
ers that will grow in shady gar
dens. For those who have grown
only ANIMALS, I'd like TO recon-
mend the perennials. The chief
reason for using them is that
they do not have 20 be re-
planted yearly but live from
year TO year, dying down in the
fall but coming up anew from
the roots each spring.
The best single group for use
in shade are the Hestas which
you may also find listed as
Funkias. These include the
lovely, white, fragrant August
lily tit IS not really a el1y of
course, but the flower IS shaped
like one), and several lilac and
Lavender lowered varieties.
They all have lovely leaves
which form large rosettes and
are green all summer. Most of
the lavender Powered kinds
bloom in July.
Spring and Summer
Anchusas furnish blue flowers
in spring and early summer, de-
pending on the variety used.
Bleeding hearts do well in shade
and you all know them. Column
bines in various colors, the
lemon lily CHemerocallis fisva).
Virginia biuebeIls, Chinese bal
loon plants, Violas. Meadow
rues Cultivated ones as we'll as
Wild, all contribute their
blooms 10 the shady garden dur
ing May and June.
All Of the vari-colored Bee
Balms (Monarda) do well in
shade. II you know this flower
as Oswego tea then you have
probably seen it only in bright
red. There are, however, white,
salmon, lavender and magenta
forms. The salmon is particu-
lariy lovely.
