Yesterday, she told us that she started by thinking about how she wanted to use the space and saved the plants for later. Today, we\u2019re coming back to see what\u2019s growing in the shady garden beds surrounding her patio and gazebo.<\/p>\n<p><em>I envisioned a calm palette of green, blue, silver, and white. Because the area is quite shady, I focused on foliage first and flowers second, using a handful of mostly white-flowering plants to brighten the garden. The garden beds are narrow, but I still wanted them to feel lush and layered rather than like a simple row of plants.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>Another look at Claire\u2019s finished gazebo. The lush foliage planted around it makes the structure feel almost like a tiny house tucked into the garden, while the matching dragon planters filled with <a class=\"decorated-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.finegardening.com\/article\/indoor-foliage-plants-with-pizzazz\" target=\"_new\" rel=\"noopener\" data-start=\"414\" data-end=\"503\">spider plants<\/a> (<em data-start=\"505\" data-end=\"527\">Chlorophytum comosum<\/em>, Zones 9\u201311) frame the entrance like containers beside a front door.
