Gardening Know How Questions & Answers - https://questions.gardeningknowhow.comJust recently I lost 2 beloved pets. They are buried in a corner of the backyard where there is no grass and nothing seems to grow. It is very rocky in the area underneath the dirt. It is a very shady area as well. I would like to plant something pretty there in this area. Do you have any suggestions? I live in Crossville, TN. There is a fence around the entire backyard so something climbing would have a place to cling to if that would be the case. Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you,
Cammie
