woodland plant
Shaded grove growth
A woodland plant is any plant adapted to grow in forest environments, typically thriving in partial to full shade beneath tree canopies.
These plants often bloom in early spring before trees leaf out, taking advantage of available sunlight: The garden features native woodland plants like trillium and bloodroot.
The term appears in gardening contexts for shade-tolerant species.
