I have a couple of grasses requiring full sun that I've place in a shady spot. It has worked out, they just haven't grown as voraciously as the ones in sun.

Apologies for not being back sooner...been seeing my parrot off on her long voyage to Africa... she's my baby (and she is...she's only two years old!) Big responsibility, given she'll live much longer than me...

Sorry! Normal service to be resumed soon! :)
