Brighten Up the Shady Spots with Shade-Loving Plants from Hillside Farm Nursery & Garden Centre
Got a corner of the garden that never sees much sun?
Don’t worry — shade doesn’t have to mean dull.
At Hillside Farm Nursery & Garden Centre, we have a fantastic range of shade-loving plants that thrive in low-light areas and bring colour, texture, and life to even the darkest corners.
From lush foliage to delicate flowers, you’ll find plenty of inspiration for borders, underplanting, and woodland-style gardens:
🌿 Foliage Favourites – Add depth and structure with classics like Hostas, Ferns, Heucheras, and Brunnera – perfect for ground cover and striking leaf colour.
🌸 Flowering Shade Plants – Bring gentle pops of colour with Astilbe, Foxgloves, Japanese Anemones, and Hellebores – ideal for dappled light and woodland edges.
🪴 Ground Cover & Low-Growers – Cover bare patches beautifully with Vinca, Ajuga, and other hardworking plants that spread with ease.
🌳 Under Trees & North-Facing Walls – We’ve got the right plants for tricky spots where other plants might struggle.
Our shade-loving selection is carefully curated to suit all garden styles, and our knowledgeable team is always happy to help you choose the right plants for your space, soil, and conditions.
