| Hi. You can actually grow some of the cool season vegetables in partial shade areas and keep growing them into the warmer months...lettuce, spinach, peas. It all depends upon how much sun that area gets. Some other ideas include Alpine Strawberries,Filberts,Highbush cranberry, currants, or Gooseberry, Lingonberry, raspberries, Blueberries...basically any berry that grows in wooded areas does well in partial shade. You also need to take into account the type of soil you have...well drained, clay, etc. That will impact how well the plants do as much as the amount of sun they get. |
