Thinking about my shade garden

I have always wanted a shade garden, but have never had a good place for one. I have had to choose plants that do well in full blown sun. So with the prospect of finally getting to plant one at my house; I went to http://www.bluestoneperennials.com/ and checked out the deer resistant plants. I want it all!! As usual I made a list of all the stuff I like at first glance, now I will go through and take a better look to make sure they will work in my spot, then I will look at what I can afford. I am starting with deer resistant because my herd is growing. Last year I consistently saw 4 does in my yard in the evenings. Now this year I have twice seen a group of 8. Most of them are older, but two of them look to be yearlings. They have never bothered my vegetable garden before, so I hope the newcomers will stay away also. But back to the plants, I will post some pictures of what I like when I figure out how to do that.
