Maine (Zones 3b to 6a: -35°F to 0°F / -37°C to -18°C)
Shade gardening in Maine requires cold-hardy perennials that can withstand harsh winters. Woodland plants and ferns are ideal for creating a cool, shaded retreat.
Examples: Lady Fern (Athyrium filix-femina), Hostas (Hosta spp.), Bloodroot (Sanguinaria canadensis).
