Do Gardens Need Light In The Winter ?

Question

Do gardens need light in winter ? A neighbouring extension threatens to cast our garden into complete shadow from about the beginning of December to mid January. Will this harm our garden and any garden plants. Thanks

Answer 1

If the plants in question are dormant at this time it should not affect them.
