Shade and Sun Plants

Question

I am trying to find out what type of plants and flowers will do well in both shade and sun. In the front of my house I have a large oak. It shades the bed to the right, but the bed on the left receives full sun. Any ideas?

Answer 1

Plenty of ideas, but tons of questions. Sizes of beds, how tall or short do you want the plants, shrubs, perennials, annuals, evergreen, deciduous, herbaceous, fragrant, blooming, color, maintenance free, how close are beds to a structure or sidewalk/drive, and what zone?
