shade garden
Dim light beds
A shade garden is a garden designed for areas that receive limited direct sunlight, planted with species that thrive in low-light conditions—ferns, hostas, impatiens, and similar plants.
The term distinguishes these gardens from conventional plantings that require full sun: The north side of the house was perfect for a shade garden.
