Create a Shade Garden Oasis in Your Backyard

Style and DIY make a great match in this lovely shade garden created by guest blogger, Leslie, of Deeply Southern Home

"The overarching goal of this landscaping plan was to create an enveloping retreat around the patio with a mixture of unique and traditional shade garden plants.  Our backyard is not completely private, but the neighbors are far enough away and there is a sufficient amount of trees to certainly feel like they aren’t staring out at you."
