Campanula trachelium will tolerate shade and flowers in July/August so is good for giving colour later in the year. Heucheras also love shade and there are varieties with lots of different coloured leaves

Epimediums like shade, as do Tiarella, Cyclamen coum & Cyclamen hederifolium, japanese anemones. Hardy Fuchsias do surprisingly well - not as well as in more sun, but they tolerate it.
