What is a good annual to plant up my driveway this year?Half is in the sun,the other in the shade.?

Last year I planted geraniums,and of course they bloomed great in the sunny spots,but poorly in the dappled shade areas.

You are aksing a shade lover to bask in the sun %26amp; a sun lover to flower exobitantly in the shade. Not going to happen equally. Try two different plants or you'll end up with a Blue Star Creeper looking well in the shade %26amp; dead in the sun. Or geraniums, well you know.



Plants need what they need. Quit fighting Mother Nature.Here try this link:
Reply:Bogonias (shade plant) are great for that, they can go both ways and also putunias (sun plant) can put up with part shade pretty well too. These are both very popular easy to find annuals. Good luck!
