We still have frost risk but decided perennials should probably be okay so we spent wantonly at the garden centre. I always make lists for myself so that I can remember what the hell everything is so I thought I would share it here too ๐Ÿ’•

Full to partial shade:

  • Hellebore (very non native but I love them)
  • Lungwort
  • Toad Lily (which I mistook for trout Lilly, which is a native ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™€๏ธ)
  • Red Toad Lily (which is a Triulium and is native)

Part shade to full sun:

  • Northern Sea Oats
  • Columbine
  • Zagreb Tickleseed (lol)
  • Ornamental Rhubarb
  • Forget me nots
  • Black Lace Elderberry

Full sun

  • Iceplant (with deep red flowers)
  • Opuntia humifusa (Prickly pear cactus endangered in Ontario???)
  • Hollyhock
  • Siberian Iris

We're zone 5a (Canada)

I'm so excited for the sea oats. The are parts of the garden that are stupid dry and others that are soggy, so we have a wide variety of conditions to play with it's fun!
