The Rodale Institute says a garden should be planned carefully especially if you grow different kinds of foods. For example,rows of vegetables should be planted in an eastwest direction.That way,as the sun passes overhead,all the plants will receive an equal amount of light.This is especially important when the plants grow to different heights.
Nut trees such as filbert,hazelnut and yellowhorn produce well with only sun in the morning.
Some fruits also do well without a lot of sunlight.In the United States,blueberries,raspberries,and several kinds of pears need only a little sun each day.In Asia,the hardy kiwi grows well in the shade.
Many herbs grow well without much sun.Mint plants,for example,grow well in the shade.So do sage,dill,oregano,borage,chamomile and several kinds of thyme.
The owner of a garden seed company warned against removing shade trees.He cut down all his shade trees to provide more sun for his crops.But then he had to protect his summer lettuce from the heat of the sun by hanging a piece of cloth to provide shade.
Instead of cutting trees,he suggested putting plants that need a lot of sunlight,such as tomatoes,in containers.That way they can be moved as the sun moves.
