Gardening in Shade

Aquatic palnts and herbs for the shade?

16 years ago

I am planning on having an indoor water garden. The plants will be in pots and the condition of the area is ok, besides light since it is an outdoor area in the house but the top has a transparent cover to it so theres only little amount of light. So can anyone suggest an aquatic plant for shady areas? Also herbs that can stand living in the shade?I live in Indonesia, so it's pretty hot here.Hope that info helps.

So give me an idea? Thanks.

Wish I could help you Putri, but I have no idea. I am a little confused...the water garden is indoors? Is it in a court yard?

I thik your best bet would to search your area to see what water plants are available that will take shade. The zones are so different, I don't think what I use would be usable or even available there. Good luck!
