Thank all, went to Garden Centre on Sunday very excitedly to buy said shade loving plants, but no joy They're not in until this weekend coming apparently so back I go on Sunday!
Once all planted (assuming the ground doesn't bake hard by then with the absence of any rain - heavy clay soil for me!) I'll put up some pics of the progress.
I'll also have a look at Long Acre Nurseries as I'm sure I'll find something else I want to spend a small amount of money on
perhaps another one to consider is epimedium - I've just noticed my yellow one flowering its socks off half under my Pembury Blue fir tree, and in the heavy shade of the fence - it has quadrupled in spread over two years. The leaves take on lovely reddish tints in autumn too. it grows amongst clumps of hellebores here.
