Choosing Plants for Sunny and Shaded Spaces

3 min read

Observe your space through the day and note how many hours of direct sun each area gets.

Flowering plants like marigold, roses and portulaca generally prefer full sun.

Peace lily, spider plant and many foliage plants are better suited to shade or indirect light.

Grouping plants with similar light needs makes care much easier.
