Need help with what to plant where

Hi. I am trying to figure out what's the best place in our yard to plant some new shrubs I recently bought from a nursery. These are:

1. Little Richard Abelia
2. Hino de-Giri Azalea
3. Blueshadow Fothergilla
4. Tiny Dino Asiatic Lily
5. Purple Coneflower
6. Black eyed Susan

These are the places I can plant them:

Spot 1: Large 12' x 15' clearing in between pine trees. Which gets sun for a couple of hours early morning till about 9-10 am and then filtered sun for the rest of the day till about 3 pm then no sun

Spot 2: front yard flower bed that gets direct sunlight from about 11 am to 5-6 p.m. but only in the summer. In spring and fall it gets only ~2 hours of sun in the late afternoon from 3 to 5 pm. I can only plant one plant here since there's already 2 hydrangeas and a rose bush here.

There are other spots that either get 3-4 hours of sunlight in the morning only or 6-7 hours of sunlight in the afternoon only but I will have to prepare these and make flower beds so much more work..

Thanks for your time.
