Some areas in a garden receive almost no sunshine. These areas are considered to be fully or deeply shaded, and there is a limited number of plants that will thrive in them. If you plant flowers that require a lot of sun in a fully shaded spot, you'll be disappointed in the lack of blooms. However, some plants, like impatiens, bloom well in deeply shaded areas.
Some plants do very well in partial shade and in full shade, as well as in full sunlight. If you think an area in your garden gets a little sunlight but you're not sure it's enough, try a plant, like the wax begonia, that is adaptable to varying light conditions.
