Partial Sun Flowers

Partial sun flowers are a great choice for garden areas that receive between 3 to 6 hours of direct sunlight per day. Here are some beautiful and hardy flowers that thrive in partial sun conditions:

Astilbe: Known for their feathery plumes and wide color range, astilbes do well in partial sun and appreciate moist soil.
Bleeding Heart (Dicentra): These plants feature heart-shaped flowers that dangle beautifully from arching stems. They prefer cool, shady environments but can handle partial sun.
Columbine (Aquilegia): Columbines have uniquely shaped blooms and come in various colors. They grow well in areas with morning sun and afternoon shade.
Daylily (Hemerocallis): Extremely versatile, daylilies can tolerate various light conditions, including partial sun. They come in an abundance of colors and are very low-maintenance.
Coral Bells (Heuchera): With striking foliage in shades of purple, silver, and green, coral bells add color to shady spots. They produce airy flowers on tall stems in late spring and early summer.
Hosta: Although primarily considered shade plants, many hostas tolerate and even benefit from a few hours of morning sun. They offer attractive foliage and summertime blooms.
Lungwort (Pulmonaria): Known for their speckled leaves and early spring flowers, lungworts are excellent for partial sun areas.
Foxglove (Digitalis): These towering plants are known for their tubular flowers, which attract hummingbirds and bees. They do best in dappled shade or partial sun.
Japanese Anemone (Anemone hupehensis): Offering late-season blooms, these perennials are perfect for brightening up shady spots in the latter part of the growing season.
Lenten Rose (Helleborus): Blooming in late winter to early spring, these shade-loving perennials provide early color and are quite hardy.

When planning a garden in a partial sun location, make sure to consider the specific needs of each plant regarding soil type, moisture, and spacing to ensure a thriving and beautiful garden.
