    Hi there

    I'm looking to put some bedding plants in my front garden for colour and interest. They would need to work well with the hollybush and fuschia that are already in the bed. The plot gets limited evening sun and I'm based in south east london.

    Any recommendations please?

    Thanks

    Jo

    Hi there,I think begonias and impatiens both do well in shady gardens and flower well into autumn if you feed them and dead head the flowers

     Pansies would also look good and they come in any colour you like.

    You could have tobacco plants for fragrance.

    Whether you think you can do a thing, or think you cannot, you are right.

    Tobacco plants - nicotiana sylvestris, white scented evening flowers would look good with the holly behind them, but quite big and wild looking. Forget-me-nots are pretty.
