Plants that will grow under pine tree with sun

14 years ago

Looking for plants or flowering shrubs that will grow under a pine tree. This are gets quite a bit of sun throughout the day and can get pretty hot. So far nothing I have tried has lived much past one season. This area is a large "bed" in the front of my house and would love something colorful.
