Asked May 20, 2024, 5:14 PM EDT

Hi there! I just replaced the rock that was here with mulch and now looking to plant stuff. Not sure what to plant. It gets full morning sun and then shade about mid-day. I’m in Bloomington. The space is about 5’ deep and 32’ long. I have catmint and boxwoods in the front of our house and Karl forester grass on the side. Planning to plant hosta and fern on the other side of our house so folks an idea of my gardening style.

This web site has information and links to a plant selection data base. Try to keep a foot or more of space between the house wall and the plants in case you need to do some repair on the house wall.
