2 Glossary Sunlight Requirements. 2 Grasses... 3 Shrubs Groundcover 10 Vines. 11 Perennial Plant 12 1

3 Sunlight Requirements Full Sun is 6 or more hours of direct sun a day Full sun plants like bright sunny areas. Many full sun plants will be perfectly happy with sun 14 hours a day, every day. Some plants are happy with sun 14 hours a day, unless it gets hot then they like some afternoon shade (when the sun is hottest.) How do you know which sun plants prefer a bit of a heat break? If the plant is noted as being great for early spring it is a good bet that it will be happiest with some afternoon shade. Some plants that fall into this category are Pansies, Violas, Diascia, Nemesia, Osteospermum, and Argyranthemum. Plants that are noted as heat and/or drought tolerant are generally pretty tolerant of even hot afternoon sun. Plants in this category include Rudbeckia (black eyed susan), Echinacea (purple coneflower), Heliopsis, Coreopsis, Angelonia (Snapdragon), Phlox, Scaevola, Chrysocephalum etc... Partial Sun or Partial Shade is 4 to 6 hours of direct sun a day Partial sun and partial shade are probably the most confusing category. The two terms are fairly interchangeable. These plants prefer 4 to 6 hours of sun a day and would be happiest getting their sun mostly in the morning and/or evening with shade through the middle of the day. If a plant is called partial sun the emphasis is on making sure the plant gets at least 4 hours of sun a day. If a plant is called partial shade then greater emphasis is placed on the plant not getting more than 6 hours of direct sun. You may also see the term Dappled Shade. Dappled shade refers to areas where there is a mixture of sun and shade, generally because a deciduous tree is nearby. Dappled shade is similar to partial shade. Plants in this category are often woodland plants and will do best with little full sun (even morning or evening sun). These plants thrive on full days of sun that has been filtered by trees. Bloodroot, Aquilegia (Columbine), Wild Ginger, Wild Violets, Jack-in-the-Pulpit, and Meadow Rue are examples of woodland plants. Full Shade is less than 4 hours of direct sun a day Full shade plants prefer to get little direct sun. They like less than 4 hours of direct sun a day and prefer morning and evening sun to mid-day sun. Full shade plants should also do outstanding in dappled shade conditions. An area that will be shaded by a fence or wall will need to get several hours of sun in either morning or evening for plants to do well. Full shade does not refer to dark places. All plants need at least some light. 2
