Suzette Trimmer on Oct 18, 2015I would try Caladium Bulbs, they come in many various colors to bring color to an interesting dark area. Also certain New Guinea Impatience, astilbes, small delicate ferns, Bleeding hearts, are just some of my ideas to help you. Best of Luck..always try and go for self-seeders or plants whose tubers you can re-use.Helpful Reply

Janet Pizaro on Oct 19, 2015Ok no problem.Coleus work well in shade and come in a large variety of color which is an annual.Coral bells is the new hosta again a very large assortment of color and a perennial .Ferns are a perennial and as well come in a lot of varieties.The list can go on and on. If you are not happy with these choices let me know and I will give you more suggestions.Helpful Reply

Suzette Trimmer on Oct 20, 2015Janet, spot on with regards to window boxes are not the location for anyone to plant bleeding hearts or astilbes. One I did not consider though might be to try Lanata. Love spiller look.Helpful Reply
