Colorful Corner Entry Garden
Majority natives mixed with a few accent plants to brighten up any part shade corner. Native and glossy foliage for shady nooks and under established trees. Pops of red and purple leaves and native berries mix up the look through the seasons. Perfect pairing with sycamores and deodar cedars.
Suitable for damp-ish or streamside soils though quite drought tolerant once established (when given adequate shade).
