    I think you notice the plants (or garden features) that you like @Busy-Lizzie and I would really like one of those antique copper planters, if only I could justify the cost :).

    Ideas for what herbs and veg I can grow in raised beds in shade

    Alpine strawberries do really well in partial shade, they actually prefer it to full sun. Gooseberries are worth a go too, they're one of the few fruit bushes that genuinely don't mind a shadier spot.
