History
The life cycle of the shade garden located by Delchester Road has several important stages including flowering, developing seeds for birds or insects, and decomposing. Some of the plants rise from the soil and tilt their faces to the sun, but the majority of the plants in this garden are for shade or part shade. Shade gardens can help fill gaps under trees and shrubs and add color to wooded areas while creating visual texture throughout all four seasons.
