Our range of perennials for damp shade brings together plants for woodland, banks and cool borders, among which hostas, ferns and astilbes are among the reliable choices for the shaded garden. These perennials appreciate rich, humus-bearing and cool to waterlogged soils, where they display the full diversity of their foliage, habits and flowering. Brunnera or Siberian bugloss lighten up woodland areas with their decorative foliage and springtime forget-me-not-like flowering. Rodgersia are more architectural plants for partial shade due to their ample foliage. Also discover less common species like Astilboides tabularis with its huge round leaves and creamy-white flowering, or Kirengeshoma palmata, a Japanese woodland plant with palmate foliage and butter-yellow flowers in late summer.

These perennials require a shaded to partially shaded position, sheltered from scorching sun, as well as fertile soil that does not dry out in summer. Plant them in soil enriched with humus, water regularly during dry periods and mulch to maintain soil coolness.
