| Shade tolerant shrubs
Hi All,
I am trying to develop a planting plan for a site which already has a line of mature trees (including copper beech, horse chestnut and yew) growing alongside a nearby road.
We would like to plant a line of shrubs underneath to discourage access however I am not sure which native plants would tolerate the dense shade cast by the copper beech in particular. The only shrub I can imagine growing with any success is holly.
Does anyone have any other suggestions. The site is in West Yorkshire.
All ideas welcome |
