Azalea
Nothing says spring like the Azalea flower, and many varieties (like those from Encore and Proven Winners) have been bred to bloom more often AND with more sun tolerance. Despite the genetic advances, a shady or part-sun space in the garden will give an azalea the perfect environment to thrive.

The larger-leaf Camellia japonica offers massive spring flowers while the little leaf Camellia sasanqua has a dense habit and dainty autumn blooms. Both will love your shady or part-sun landscape.
