Have any names of pretty plants that grow other in zone 5, full shade? I'd close to a little color, even if it is only just light green vs. dull green. So far I've got ferns, hostas, and astilbes.
this site has comparatively a few plants, and if you click on the names, it will bring up pictures and info around them.

Lillie's and impulsive spring blooming flowers from the bulbs--tullips, hiacynths, and so on.
Answers: Your surrounded by my neck of the woods!! At smallest weather wise!! I love shade plants.. So heaps that are absolutley beautiful. If your discussion plants and not ground cover... you can do Hosta's..so many different varities. Sum and Substance is HUGE!! Is an AWESOME site to see. They enjoy a flowering stem that shoots up from the center. Then you could do Astilbe. This is one of my favorites.. Not only does it flower pretty...but the foliage is outstanding. Pardon my spelling on this one...the rhodedendron or the azelea. Those do highly well contained by shade in your nouns. Lungwort...Bleeding heart (LOVE)...there are also several different ornamental grasses that do economically in the shade. As far as other design... there is the vinca..also ajuga..though it is intensely invasive. Obedient plant can take chunk shade. Bishops weed is another pretty ground cover..though also very invasive!
Hope those philosophy helped. I in recent times noticed you already enjoy ferns..hostas and astilbies.. You have virtuous taste!! Surely throw within a bleeding heart!! That is such a breathtaking plant when in full bloom. It's latin cross is Dicentra. Beautiful!! If you have pets or kids...stay away from Foxglove..massively posionious!!
Oh...I found this link. This can pass you even more ideas!!

Try Hydrangeas...they should do very economically there. If they carry at least some relatively bright light they should still bloom as economically.
