A compact shady space at the back of a Montrose townhome is a great spot for a native understory tree and shade tolerant perennials. Much better than the original Bermuda grass!

An awkward narrow space becomes enticing with some well-chosen native vines.

Salvia coccinea in both its white and scarlet form create a splash of color along a path. Butterflies, bees and hummingbirds love to visit this native which tolerates shade better than many flowering plants.
