Thank you for putting together this wonderful article! I have been trying to find some interesting shade perennials that thrive in full-shade. Can’t wait to plant some of these!

My blue Endless Summer hydrangas do well in the shade. They tend to wilt in the hot sun. They are beautiful too.

WE HAVE TURNED OUR GREEN AND COLORFUL GARDEN INTO AN ALL-GREEN ONE. EASIER TO TAKE CARE OF AND NOT SO MUCH WORK AS FAR AS DEADHEADING PANSIES! THIS YEAR I ADDED SOME FIBEROPTIC GRASS, WHICH HAS LIGHT TIPS THAT LOOK SPARKLY. I STARTED PLANTING EASTER LILIES ABOUT 8 YEARS AGO, AND THEY ARE MY FAVORITE; PERENNIAL AND NO WORK WHATSOEVER. THEY GET MORNING AND EARLY AFTERNOON SUN FOLLOWED BY SHADE. I LOOK FORWARD TO TRYING SOME RECOMMENDED ON THIS SITE, AND ONES RECOMMENDED IN THE ABOVE COMMENTS.

In Atlanta (dry shade), my favorite flowering shade perennials are crested irises (Iris cristata), woodland phlox (Phlox divaricata) and beardtongue ‘Huskers Red’ (Penstemon digitalis). Spigelia and Celandine poppies, mentioned above, are also happy in my garden.
