I will create a shade garden planting plan for difficult shady areas
About this gig
I will create a custom shade garden planting plan for difficult shady areas, including beds under trees, narrow side yards, north-facing gardens, and corners where typical flowering plants fail.
This service is for homeowners who need a practical planting plan with the right plants for low-light conditions not a generic landscape design or an AI-style plant list.
What you will receive (depending on package):
- Custom shade planting concept for your selected area
- Plant selection suitable for partial shade, full shade, or dry shade
- Planting layout with clear placement
- Plant list with botanical and common names
- Seasonal interest guidance
- Basic maintenance notes
- Optional realistic visual preview depending on package
Best for:
- Shady front yard beds
- Side yards
- Under-tree planting areas
- North-facing garden beds
- Low-light corners
- Small shade borders
- Problem areas where plants keep failing
Important:
This gig is focused on planting design for shady areas. It does not include full-yard hardscape planning, construction drawings, irrigation design, grading, drainage engineering, or permit documentation.
Please send photos of the area, approximate dimensions, your location or hardiness zone.
Delivery style preference
Please inform the freelancer of any preferences or concerns regarding the use of AI tools in the completion and/or delivery of your order.

FAQ
Can you design for dry shade under trees?
Yes. Dry shade is one of the most difficult planting conditions, so I will select plants that are better suited to low light and root competition where possible.
Do you provide a full landscape design?
No. This gig is focused on planting design for shady garden beds and low-light areas. Full-yard landscape design is available through a separate custom offer.
Do you choose plants for my climate?
Yes. Please send your location or hardiness zone so I can select suitable plants.
Can you use some existing plants?
Yes. Send photos and names of the plants you want to keep, and I will include them where appropriate.
Do you provide exact plant quantities?
Yes, Standard and Premium packages include plant quantities.
Can I ask for low-maintenance plants?
Yes. I can prioritize lower-maintenance shade plants, but no garden is completely maintenance-free.
