Gardening Video: Sun to Shade—Changing Light Patterns in Your Garden

August 4, 2020

The Learning Garden presents:
Sun to Shade—Changing Light Patterns in Your Garden

Presenter: Kay Green, Extension Master GardenerSM Volunteer

The amount of sun or shade in your garden will change as the sun moves across the sky during the day and with the seasons.  By knowing how much sun the garden gets, you can better plan where your plants will thrive.  In this video, Kay shows you how to create a “Sun Map” and a “Sun Chart” to record the sun and shade patterns in your garden.  Using these simple tools will help you make better plant selections and reward you with better results.
