This dry, shady area under a stand of poplar and pine trees contains shade-tolerant perennials and annuals. Perennials planted here include Hosta, Bergenia, Filipendula and Astilbe cultivars. Shade-tolerant annuals such as impatiens and begonias are also planted here as part of the annual flower trials. The garden will evolve as large poplar trees are removed and new, small trees are planted.
