When the subject matter regarding landscapes and also landscaping design will be brought to a dialogue, the initial things that put directly into peoples’ heads are usually trees, shrubs, blossoms.

There are many plants for shade, but you may not get the same bold color as you will with sun plants. Try these ideas, then fill in with annuals, such as impatients. The best bet for shade are daylilies — buy ones that bloom at different times to get continual color, hydrangea (but dont put them too close to tree roots), hostas (not much color in flowers, however) Also, look for shade plants with unique leaves (hellaborus, cora bells).

Also, many ground cover flower in the spring and can handle the areas under trees:

hostas come in many colors, are shade loving, and flower well.

Ferns add green anywhere, many can survive your area and still stay green throught the winter.

Annuals will also add some nice seasonal color.

For coastal and southern north carolia a jelly palm would be perfect to add a little color but will need some extra sun.

well i would used plants that compartment the color of your house and "green" plants like ferns that are soft on the eye and go with most things. I would recommend getting something heavy to put around your plants like rocks instead of mulch because it will blow around and get into your pool which causes filter problems. Considering you have limited sun, I would use plants that need medium shade. You can find this information on tags on the plats at Home Depot or Lows or any other outdoor home goods Store.Hardware stores could also have plants. I would use plants that don't have small flowers again because they will fall into your pool. I would use plants with long leaves. hope this helps! email me if you need more help or want me to go into more detail about this.
