Was soll man in dieses kleine schattige Beet pflanzen?

Trilliums! They are great ground cover and they don’t take up much space

I could see some creeping phlox for interest , hosta (I know deer), sedge, and purple fountain grasses here. Oh and maybe a candy corn in here.

Tiarella cordifolia

I’m always looking for space in my few spots of shade, so I’m jealous. And VA is a great plant region (and apparently you grow lots of deer too – lol!). Crocus tommasinianus (Tommies) may be a little more deer resistant than the others. I’d add a few groupings of naturalizing daffodils too. Perhaps add a natural looking group of 3 or so landscape rocks that your daffs can poke their heads over (and have their dying foliage hidden after), with your Tommies in front of the rocks in groups. Then a perennial nearby, such as brunnera, to grow foliage and take over (lovely airy light blue spring flowers).

You have a nice background of red brick and then the blue flowers from the neighbor. So I’d use that as part of your design. Low plants in the middle, with taller plants each side to frame that view. Bleeding heart is pretty, foliage lasts til later in summer. A groundcover fern that ties everything in could be nice such as oak (deep shade/moisture, gorgeous or Himalayan fern can handle lighter shade but no sun, pretty layering foliage – both spread), especially growing up around your birdbath to soften the edges of the cement. Lady in Red ferns are upright, tough ferns for taller accents. A few spots of wild ginger for accent foliage. The chartreuse of some coral bells would add some lightness and wands of flowers (the darker colors are more sun resistent), although sometimes the deer will get into them. An upright narrow yew or three for the back corner can fill that space for balance. A nice natural mulch can also tie everything together plus hold in some moisture.

You don’t need a lot of different plants – groups will work well, with accents here and there. Good luck.

I agree with trillium! For added and dependable mounds of contrast I adore purple oxalis with a couple of capsicum bulbs in the middle for height. Persian shield is gorgeous and for trailing by the bricks either creeping jenny (check your zone to make sure it’s okay because some places people say it takes over but I’ve never had that experience) or ice plant string of turtles, begonias in the back and Swedish ivy in a hanging basket suspended by a shepherd’s hook. There are many options- I can send you pics of what I did in my back yard if you want to message me!

Ferns

I use a product called Liquid Fence to keep the deer out of things. Works pretty well and only needs to sprayed every few weeks. Good
Luck

Your neighbor’s blue salvias appear to be thriving. Maybe some liriope for times when the salvia dies back.

If I didn’t already have a small herb garden there I’d plant one. Parsley, basil, sage, and maybe oregano if you have time to watch it and keep it from taking over. I use a lot of oregano so have a big portion of my herb garden with just oregano.

Periwinkles and bachelor buttons, and maybe even a small lilac closer in toward the house – those would all compliment your neighbor’s choices, who knows. I will say that bird bath base is a safety hazard and serves no good purpose, and if it were my place, I’d get rid of the wooden bed walls and put in possibly a low boxwood hedge from the exit wall straight out past that bird bath (I’d keep the bird bath itself, maybe even right where it is, except lose the base disc) and then over to the wall by your lamp. Hedge perimeter and plants replaced by used brick pavers could be loverly with a small furnished reading/chatting space and some potted things – weeeeeee – like picking up a whole “nature” room without paying higher taxes.

Oh, wait – now I realize this is all one home. OK, periwinkles for ground cover, and a small lilac closer to the house. Turn the uphill space into a patio, maybe.

I have a deep and abiding love for heartleaf alkanet, which looks particularly lovely next to ferns, columbine, lily of the valley (make sure it’s not invasive in your area), bleeding heart, and hellebore.

An assortment of herbs! Fertilize that soil and bring it up to maximum health. Then put in some chives, rosemary, thyme, parsley, oregano, sage, i.e. stuff that grows into late fall in your area. And then next spring, get basil, cilantro, dill, some garlic. Do NOT plant any mint!!! Only ever have mint in a separate container away from a garden in the ground. Mint takes over and is unstoppable. So keep it separate. Happy cooking!

Look for anything perennial shade plants like hosta, ferns, heuchera or bleeding hearts.

I know Hosta’s seem to be used everywhere but they would actually look good in that area. You may want to find something that likes shade with some height to it in the back to kinda fill it in a bit. Best of luck!

If you were in the US look at the prairie moon website. They have all native. For non-native I love lungwort and brunnera. Both bloom early spring, and deer or bunnies have not touched mine.

Brunnera. I have the lungwort flanked by 2 Brunnera. Notice the caged hosta in the back. Leafy things are daffodils.

I’ve recently planted Itea Fizzy mizzy and Kodiak fresh diervilla both around listed as about 3’x3′ when mature (there are a number of Kodiak varieties of various sizes), they are both listed as deer resistant but I don’t have deer so I cannot vouch for just how deer resistant they are. They are nice little shrubs though, they can take shade and don’t require much attention. (I dislike most shrubbery but have resigned myself to needing some as I get older and don’t have the time/energy to fuss over as much of the garden as I used to.) My Sun King aralias arrive this week, everyone selling them lists the size as 3’x3′ but people growing them say they get much larger, I hope mine do, I am so in love with this one! In the spring I’m contemplating both Soft caress and Groovy glow mahonia for my shady areas. (If someone has mature soft caress I’d love to see it, so hard to find pictures of mature plants.)

Good luck, hope you find something you love to fill the space.

For year-round deer-resistant native shade in 7b, try a dwarf fothergilla Blue Shadow as the wall specimen, a short row of Itea Little Henry or dwarf inkberry for structure, then a groundcover matrix of foamflower, golden ragwort, heuchera americana, Pennsylvania sedge, Virginia bluebells, blue wood aster, and Christmas fern to keep bloom and texture rolling. Set the fothergilla off center near the tall wall, arc the itea or inkberry along the brick edge, and weave the groundcovers around your fern so the crocus can pop through in spring. I usually use [Gardenly](https://gardenly.app) to visualize my ideas, maybe give that a try.
