I have an area which has a row of trees behind it. It never gets any direct sun. Is there a plant that I could put in there? I don't want flowers, but rather a plant. What about hostas? Would they be good? I'll take some pictures once it stops raining.
Thanks,

hosta's would be perfect for that spot! there are a few different varieties - some with just all green leaves and some that are variegated. they do flower too.

also, ferns and lily's of the valley do well in shade. i've got a variety of geranium that needs shady areas - it bushes out and has a nice purple flower on it. it spreads out nicely too. doesn't get real tall, tho.

you could also do just a basic ground cover. there are quite a few that do well in shade.

Thanks for the link I will get some hostas, maybe see what other plants they have at Lowes. Thanks all!

So I bought three hostas- they are gorgeous! Plus a whole bunch of little plants that will fill in with time. I took some pictures to share- but can't re-call the site that we upload them to. Anyone know it?
Thanks,
Gail
