The combo of Jacobs Ladder and Toad Lilly would give blooms most of the year (Spring and Summer for Jacobs, Fall for Toad), and the Heuchera would provide good contrast colors. I just don't know what availability of those species is, gotta start hitting nurseries. |
If you'd like to borrow my Western Gardening Book (or any of the others), you may.
Al three of those plants are beautiful, but I've never heard of them - and with my strangely large plant knowledge base, is odd. It makes me think the are more common in the East Coast.
If you like the different leaf colors, try Coleus. They do well in shade.
