Alternative To Mahonias And Hostas

Question

Hi, I have an area of my garden where Mahonias and Hostas really thrive but I’d like to plant something else in that area too. Please do you have any suggestions? The area is shady, always damp and does seem to drain. Afraid I don’t know what type of soil it is but area as a whole has a lot of clay. Thank you in advance.
