Neil Junior Member N Joined: Jul 2004 Minot, ND	I would like to get some ideas from others on how to plant an area that is 3 feet wide, and 15 feet long. This area is next to a wall which is 4 feet high, and gets partial shade throughout the day, mostly sun in the morning, shade in the evening. Can anyone give me any ideas or landscaping plans?
