What's Your Shade?

For years, I believed what the catalogues and plant tags told me --  the only light categories I needed to worry about were:  full sun, part sun or shade. In the last few years though,  I have begun to appreciate the fact that shade is not a one-size fits all situation. It is variable and it is transient. There are multiple degrees and types of shade and each nurtures its own, wonderful plant palette.
