I like the shade garden plants that I am going to add to my garden. I bought some heuchera and I think I will add some more. The hostas are looking great. Thanks for sharing.

Hi, great video. What is meant by a triple 15 fertilizer? Is that 15-15-15?

[@volunteergardener]

Yes. The N-P-K ratio is the same at 15% each of Nitrogen (foliage), Phosophorous (roots) and Potassium (plant vigor and disease resistance).

Would these plants grow in the Mediterranean ?

After much wasted effort and expense, I have given up on heuchera. Ferns and brunera have done well in my zone 6 shade, unlike the heuchera. It was a real disappointment because they add so much color to the shade garden.

I know it's extra work and all, but I think it would be swell if you showed/grew plants that where useful. Either for medicine, forage/food, dye, carbon crop, otherwise beneficial. Thank you in advance.

This was one small part of the West TN UT Ag Experiment Station. Thank you.
