Groundcovers that Thrive in Shade
(category list)

Though there are varying degrees of shade, this definition refers to a dense shade that is often found beneath lower tree limbs or on the north side of the house. Some sun is received, but usually in the morning hours. Because the afternoon sun is stronger, plants that require shelter from the afternoon sun are usually categorized as shade loving.

Know the performance of the plant in your climate before you buy and plant it. Consider contacting your local cooperative extension for advice about how a plant performs in your specific area.
