One of the most difficult spots people find to to plant is shade. This is why we have created a shade house in our shade tunnel and its brimming with plants, not just ferns and hostas but perennials, excellent ground cover for both dry and wet shade. Here are some suggestions that should help to carpet the ground.
Specifically for dry shade
