10 Plants That Love Shade

Lily of the valley, Convallaria Majalis – a fragrant plant

Lily of the valley is one of the most gorgeous additions to flower beds, or simply as a ground cover, and they’re amazing when it comes to maintenance because they don’t need much. This plant loves staying in full shade, so it’s the perfect choice for a north-facing garden.

Plus, it will spread to create a wonderful show of foliage and flowers. The small and delicate bell-like flowers have one of the richest and nicest scents ever. I have to admit that this is by far my favorite flower. There’s nothing that lets you know better that summer is about to come than Lily of the valley!

    I clicked on this because I thought it was going to be for house plants. Inside of my home is rather dark (due to lots of trees outside). Have you done one for indoor plants that like less light?

    Can you please post about houseplants that need little or no light or that can live with artificial light?
