Jane and Nan, thanks for the replies. Jane- I also have a passion vine "Inspiration" I grew last year in a pot and it did great. I cut it back about a week ago and it's putting on new growth already. If your vine is growing in partial shade, I can try one in my problem area. As for hamelia, I googled it and it was confirmed that in my area they can tolerate partial shade.

Nan- I read that certain bee balms can tolerate partial shade. Nice that this is confirmed by you. I'll PM you.

I also found that perennial phlox and astilbe can tolerate partial shade, so my list of potential plants is growing.
