Best vegetable to grow in shade


Shade-Tolerant Vegetables and Herbs — Seattle's Favorite Garden Store Since 1924

Don’t give up on a vegetable garden because you have more shade than you would like. Many gardeners don’t have the opportunity to grow in the ideal 8+ hours of full sun, especially in the city. However, many veggies can tolerate partial shade; a few even appreciate it!

“Partial shade” refers to areas that are exposed to 3-6 hours of sunlight. Areas that receive dappled sun or filtered sunlight for most of the day are also considered to be in partial shade. Even in less-than-ideal sun exposure, you can still do some veggie gardening. Just try it out and see! Often, gardeners with shade garden success earned it with a little trial and error. 

Try these shade-tolerant vegetables in your garden:

Salad greens

arugula, endive, lettuce, sorrel, spinach

Salad greens generally do well in cooler weather and they welcome some shade! It can be tricky to grow them during the hottest part of the summer because these veggies go to seed (also known as bolting) more quickly with too much heat or sun. However, a  shadier spot can help extend their production. Salad greens tolerate 3-4 hours of sun per day very well.

Leafy greens

collards, kale, mustard greens, swiss chard

These leafy greens are often served cooked. With 3-4 hours of sun daily, they will grow more slowly but you can harvest them as “baby greens” and they will be tender and sweet.

Root veggies 

beets, carrots, potatoes, radishes, rutabaga, turnips

You can harvest root veggies before they reach their full size for "baby" vegetables, or wait a little longer for a fully mature crop. They’ll take a little longer to reach full size in 4-5 hours of sun, but partial shade will prevent them from bolting (going to seed) too quickly. Radishes especially prefer a bit of shade from the heat of summer, to keep them from turning woody and bolting. Consistent watering is also important to avoid woodiness and bolting. Keep in mind that you can harvest the delicious greens of beets, turnips, and radishes even if the root stays small.

Brassica veggies

Broccoli and cauliflower, brussels sprouts, cabbage

These veggies in the Brassica genus grow tighter heads and flower later with partial sun. With broccoli and cauliflower, you may be able to get a second smaller crop after you cut off the main central head. These cool-weather plants do well with 4-6 hours of sunlight daily.

Peas and beans

Being in a shaded spot will lengthen the growing season for peas and beans! These veggies can do well with about 4-5 hours of sun daily. Remember to pick peas and beans regularly to encourage continued growth. Read more tips in our blog post on how to grow peas. 

Leeks and onions

Leeks and onions do very well in cooler, moist environments. They can get by with at least about 4 hours of sun per day. 

Herbs

mint, chervil, chives, coriander/cilantro, oregano, parsley

Herbs make great additions to a shady veggie garden! Keep in mind these herbs will grow more quickly and densely with more sun, but they usually still do well with 4 hours of sun per day. Also, note that mint is such a vigorous grower that it’s best to put it in a container so it doesn’t take over your garden.

Meals are best when the ingredients are home-grown; don't let some shade stop you! Happy planting!

You may wonder if there are vegetables to grow in shade if you have darker areas in your backyard?

Shady corners of the garden are often overlooked, particularly when it comes to growing your own. But once you know the easiest vegetables to grow in shade, you can transform these areas from unused to productive as part of your vegetable garden ideas.

It isn't difficult to grow vegetables in shade and in fact, some of the easiest vegetables to grow at home include shade tolerant crops.

Vegetables to grow in shade

While these easiest vegetables to grow in shade will tolerate some lack of sunlight, most will prefer to be started off in full sun, if possible. The leaves capture sunlight to produce energy, so it’s a good idea to make sure that the leaves are developed before you plant them out, to give them a bit of a head start. You could start them under cover if you're planning a greenhouse. 

If the leaves can’t capture enough sunlight, the plant simply won’t be able to establish and will likely succumb to pests or diseases. 

That said, there are also some advantages to growing vegetables in shade. ‘A shady spot slows growth, but it also slows bolting,’ says Kevin Espiritu of Southern California based Epic Gardening . Plants that are prone to bolting can benefit from less sun. 

‘Ideally plant in areas that get mid-afternoon to late afternoon shade, but are otherwise sunny,’ Espiritu adds. ‘This way you’re shading out your plants during the most intense sunshine periods of the day, providing them with a bit of relief.' This is particularly useful in warmer zones.

Just as there are shade plants or shrubs for shade that perform well in darker corners of the garden, there are crops that can do well, too.

1. Beets

Beets are a tasty, easy to grow and easy to store vegetable. Like most vegetables, they prefer partial shade, so if you can, allow them to have a few hours of sunlight a day. The more sunlight they get, the faster they will grow, so if you are growing beets in shade, you might just need to be a bit more patient.

You will need to sow seeds in full sun to get them started. When they are 2-3 inches (5-7cm) tall, plant the whole clump out into the shady area of your backyard. Make sure to plant the clumps at least 12 inches (30cm) apart to allow them plenty of space to grow. 

‘Shady areas are often damp, so allowing air to circulate will also reduce the potential for fungal diseases. Don’t position plants too close together to start with, allow them some space to breathe and grow into,’ explains gardener and author Liz Zorab of Byther Farm .

2. Lettuce

(Image credit: Becky Searle)

Lettuce is a staple in any vegetable garden because it’s both tasty and easy to grow. The really great thing once you know how to grow lettuce in the shade is that it will be a lot less prone to wilting and bolting. Lettuce leaves can sometimes become slightly bitter or tough if they grow in too much heat with not enough water, so growing them in some shade can help to mitigate this.

‘I deliberately pick places in my garden that I know will turn shady as the seasons progress,’ says Oma Garden, Oklahoma-based gardener and blogger at Oma’s Gardens . ‘The main reason being that shady areas can actually be a blessing for leafy greens. These particular plants are more subject to bolting in high heat; having that perfectly shaded spot is the best way to extend their life as summer shows its face,’ she adds.

Slugs and snails tend to be more prevalent in shaded areas. Choose an upright, loose-leaf variety, such as lollo rosso, to minimize damage. Harvest the leaves from the bottom up and try to make sure they aren’t dragging on the surface of the soil. This will make it more difficult for slugs and snails to get up on to the plant.

3. Swiss chard

Fabulous for providing food, structure, and color, swiss chard is also one of the easiest vegetables to grow in shade. Sow in spring as part of your gardening calendar and you will have a crop from summer, right through to the following spring. 

Chard plants can get quite big and are prone to fungal problems, such as powdery mildew, so make sure that you give them room to grow and allow plenty of air to circulate around the leaves. 

Both the stems and leaves are edible, and very versatile. Try a variety called Peppermint for a huge splash of pink to brighten up a dull corner of the garden. 

4. Celery

Celery is a great addition to a veg patch, but without proper conditions it can sometimes be a little disappointing. Those crunchy, watery stems that we are used to can be chewy and bitter when grown without the right conditions. Thankfully, growing celery in shade can help achieve good results.  

Celery needs a lot of water to produce tender, juicy stems. Shady areas are often damper, as not as much water is lost from the soil’s surface through evaporation. Growing these vegetables in shade also helps to slow down their growth, which helps create tender stems. In fact, many growers use collars around celery stems to shade them and keep them pale and tender. 

5. Carrots

Once you know how to grow carrots you will understand what a joy they are to grow and to harvest. They can be prone to bolting, so planting carrots in shady, cooler conditions, where they are sheltered from the hottest parts of the day, can actually increase your crop – although of course their growth will be a little slower.

Carrots seeds should be directly sown into the beds, so if possible, sow them somewhere that will get direct sunlight for some of the day, preferably the morning when the heat is less intense. This will ensure that the seedlings can get established and leaves can develop enough to cope with the lower light conditions for the rest of the day.  

Alternatively some varieties grow well as vegetable garden container ideas, so you can move the pots into shady spots in the hottest parts of the day

6. Salad leaves

(Image credit: Becky Searle)

Salad leaves, such as pak choi, mizuna, mustard, bok choy, tatsoi and cilantro are among the easiest vegetables to grow in shade. As with lettuce, other leafy greens are prone to bolting, and therefore careful use of shade can make them easier to grow. 

‘As a general rule of thumb, anything you're not growing for its fruit or flowers tends to do better in the shade,’ says Kevin Espiritu of Epic Gardening.

Leafy greens growing in lower light levels will not grow as fast as those in full sun. 'But if we are smart about it, this can work to our advantage,' he adds.

7. Broccoli

(Image credit: Becky Searle)

Another good choice of vegetables to grow in shade are broccoli, cauliflower, and other brassicas, such as kohlrabi. The slower growth will be an advantage when it comes to broccoli and cauliflower, which need to be harvested in the few days before they start to flower. This period will be slightly longer if they aren’t in full sun, and you therefore have a greater chance of being able to catch them at the right point to harvest.

You may encounter more slugs and snails in shady parts of the garden. Brassicas can be prone to slug and snail damage so, as with most of the crops on this list, it’s a good idea to sow them in full sun and plant out when they are well established. 

If you have a particularly large population of slugs and snails, you will want to wait until the plants are around 4-5 inches (10-12cm) tall before transplanting to give them the best chance of survival.  

8. Spring onions – scallions

(Image credit: Future)

Spring onions, or scallions, are easy to grow under most conditions, although growth will be slower if you choose to grow spring onions in the shade. The more sun they are given the faster they will grow, so to get a longer cropping period you might consider growing some in the sun and some in the shade.  

Sow them in modules in a sunny spot to help the plants to establish before you plant them out as a clump in the shade. If you are growing them in partial shade – areas that get about 6 hours of sunlight a day – you can sow them directly into the ground.

9. Radishes

(Image credit: Becky Searle)

Radishes are one of the fastest and easiest vegetables to grow in shade. They are delightfully peppery and work well cooked or raw in a salad. 

You can sow radish directly into the ground and ‘shade can keep radishes from bolting – putting up a flower stalk – which is a great advantage because once a plant bolts, it can taste bitter,’ explains Aimee Damman from Swansons Nursery .

‘A little shade can also help keep the soil cooler and slow the evaporation of water, which is definitely a plus,' she adds. 

10. Kale

(Image credit: Becky Searle)

It's easy to learn how to grow kale, and there are lots of varieties to choose from of this shade tolerant crop. The tender and flavorsome leaves of cavolo nero or the frilly and crunchy leaves of redbor are sure to provide you with food, even in the winter and early spring when other crops are dormant. 

How do you grow vegetables in shade?

While there are many vegetables to grow in shade, there are some inherent challenges, so manage your expectations. 

Plants need light to photosynthesize, and the more they get, the faster they will grow. Some plants are understory plants – which means that they are specifically adapted to grow in the dappled shade that you would usually get under trees. 

‘Choose the right vegetables,’ says Aimee Damman. ‘Not everything can be grown in shadier conditions but if you start with vegetables that can tolerate shade, you’ll have better luck.'

The general rule of thumb with growing in the shade is to ensure that the plants are getting at least a few hours of sunlight, in partial shade. Where possible,  start seedlings off in full sun so they are well established before they go into the shade.  

‘I consider full shade anything that has 3 or less hours of sun a day. These are those dark areas that are either dappled with light or covered by obstacles such as buildings that keep even seasonal light from coming in. Light shade are those areas that get between 3 and 6 hours of good light. Partial shade gets the most at around 6 to 8 hours in key high sun times,’  explains Oma Garden.

If a plant appears to be suffering, or succumbing to pests or diseases, it’s a clear sign it is not being grown under the right conditions, and if possible it should be moved.

What vegetable grows best in shade?

Among the vegetables that grow best in shade are lettuce, leafy greens, and some herbs, such as cilantro. If you have just a small area of shade, these are probably the best choice. 

‘The best vegetable to grow in the shade, counterintuitively, is cilantro – or coriander. Despite it being primarily used in summer dishes, it struggles to grow in full sun in hot conditions, as it bolts quickly. I find putting it in a shady spot slows growth, but also slows bolting,’ says Kevin Espiritu of Epic Gardening.

What vegetables do not need sunlight?

There are not any vegetables that do not need sunlight.

Full shade is an area that never gets any direct sunlight. There are some plants that will grow well in these conditions, as they are adapted to low light levels, but vegetables will not. 

If you have an area of full shade, try instead growing hostas, which are edible plants – the shoots can be eaten like asparagus or the leaves can be eaten like lettuce.

What fruits grow in shade?

‘I think currants are superb plants to grow in a shadier spot in the garden,' explains Liz Zorab. 'They provide structure, flowers, and masses of edible fruit. To have sweeter fruit, some sunshine during the day is ideal, but they don't need to be in full sun all the time.’

Other fruits, such as gooseberries, cherries and pears will also grow in partial shade.

Vegetables, herbs and herbs do not have to be grown only in open sunny areas. Site conditions vary. Perhaps you are the owner of a secluded garden and strive to make the most of unoccupied areas in partial shade. Maybe you are setting up an ornamental garden, in which some of the beds are shaded by shrubs, trees, and buildings. Even for such conditions, there are many plants that give a good harvest. And it doesn't have to be spicy herbs or boring salads. In soft lighting, protected from overheating and drought, many traditional garden dwellers surprise only on the positive side.

Peculiarities of growing vegetables in partial shade

Gardens are traditionally planted on open, sunny areas. But the popularity of mixed garden design and ornamental vegetable gardens, this seemingly invariable rule, is just one of the options. Especially in small gardens, where every free meter of space is very valuable.

Places in shade, in soft scattered penumbra under deciduous trees or near buildings should not be considered “unsuitable” for growing vegetables and useful plants. As are those beds where larger crops create shading. Whatever the reason that prompted the cultivation of vegetables in partial shade, suitable species will always be found. They will also help out in situations where you need to make room for more sun-loving crops by moving shade-tolerant species.

Before looking for vegetable plants for shady areas, it is worth limiting the allowable shading to reasonable limits. Vegetables can be grown in partial shade, but not in heavy shade. For full-fledged fruiting, the formation of tasty leaves or fruits, any plant needs at least 3-4 hours of sun per day for leafy and spicy crops and 5 hours for root crops and crops that eat fruits. Even the most shade-tolerant salads and herbs are no exception to these norms. And, of course, when changing the lighting from the usual bright, it is worth making sure that the soil and its characteristics fully comply with the individual requirements of each plant species.

Particular garden plants will thrive in partial shade:

There are many advantages to growing some vegetables in partial shade - from longer vegetation, more delicate texture and taste of greenery to less need for watering and care. Indeed, in partial shade, the soil overheats less, moisture does not evaporate so quickly, the soil retains its texture and breathability better, and the risk of crusting is not so high.

But there are also risks: in partial shade, with excessive humidity and excessive rainfall, the risk of spreading diseases increases, and the crop volume in bad years can be several times inferior to "colleagues" in traditional beds. But if you choose the right plants and take into account the characteristics of your garden, constantly change the "set" of crops and do not forget about the elementary rules of growing and crop rotation, planting vegetables in partial shade will only bring joy.

Spicy herbs in semi-shady places bloom later and form a noticeably large green mass

Spicy classic for places with secluded lighting

Most plants that combine several useful qualities at once prefer stable soil moisture and do not like sun and overheating. Delicious leaves that can be used as food or for tea, used as a medicinal plant or spice in fresh and dried form, decorative - such cultures have many talents.

Mint is the most decorative and has the best leaf mass in partial shade. But this is just the obvious choice. Other herbs can also be grown in secluded lighting:

The main argument in favor of growing herbs in semi-shady locations is that they bloom later, form a large green mass of fragrant leaves for a slightly longer period (at least a few weeks compared to plants in open sunny areas).

Salads and leafy vegetables for semi-shade

You can set up a bed with your favorite herbs even in a small area near the house. It is an excellent alternative to flyers and the best "filler" for mixed ornamental plantings. A secluded semi-shady corner will appeal to both fast-growing plants and plants that reach their best taste only by autumn.

You can't grow head lettuce in partial shade, but lettuces of all varieties and colors will feel comfortable in shading. As well as spicy salads - watercress, valerianella, arugula, etc.

Grows a much larger leaf mass with smaller leaf size and is pleasantly distinguished by its delicate flavor and texture from its counterparts in full sun also:

These must-have plants for the summer table with a special taste bloom much later in partial shade, are not bitter and require less frequent watering. The risk of fungal diseases is higher, but pests are lower.

The real queen of partial shade - cabbage

Favorite vegetables to serve

If a semi-shady area requires at least 5 hours of morning or evening sun, then classic vegetables can also be grown on it. Of course, not all the inhabitants of the beds can move to secluded places. Tomatoes, peppers, eggplants, cucumbers, corn, and many other species will not grow even in light partial shade. But there are pleasant exceptions to this rule.

Physalis, rhubarb and radish

In partial shade, physalis will delight you with an excellent harvest - an unpretentious plant from which you can choose vegetable or sweet strawberry varieties for every taste. Even with minimal care, physalis bears fruit amazingly abundantly and for a long time. And it is easily renewed by self-sowing.

You can safely grow rhubarb in partial shade, creating original accents in compositions or entire decorative groups with the help of this perennial favorite. He will release a large number of shoots only with timely watering, but on the other hand, it will be possible to harvest the crop longer than in full sun, while the rhubarb stems will remain juicy and tender.

Radish is an amazingly versatile plant. Fast growing, adaptable to almost any company and great in mixed plantings, it will surprise you with a milder taste and delicate texture in partial shade. The larger-fruited variety, the juicier and not sharper it turns out in diffused lighting, although it does not reach the maximum size. And the radish shoots in a secluded place much later.

Root crops

Other root crops can be added to the plan of sowing in partial shade, which do well even not in the sun. Carrots, parsnips, beets, rutabaga may not bring a record harvest, but they will delight you with tenderness and leaves. Even potatoes can be placed here: plantings for collecting young tubers to the table in the summer in shading often surprise only on the good side. Later fruiting is not such a big disadvantage if you choose early and early-growing varieties. Yes, and potatoes do not form such a green mass in partial shade, but larger and more uniform tubers on fertile soil can be expected.

Cabbage

Cabbage is the real queen of the penumbra. Moreover, there are many varieties that perfectly tolerate limited lighting, both among everyone's favorites and among the species that are grown mainly by devoted fans. The first candidates are varieties of cabbage that are prone to shooting and losing the quality of leaves in the sun, considered to be autumn rather than summer, preferring a reduced daylight hours - pok choy, Beijing, kale and other varieties of leafy cabbage.

Both broccoli and cauliflower of all colors form much more delicious and tender buds in less than full sun. And they are surprised by the ability, after cutting the main crop, to continue to form small lateral heads in the axils of the leaves.

White cabbage of early varieties also grows well in partial shade, more readily tying more juicy heads. But the brussels sprouts, which are returning to fashion again, are even better tolerated by shading, in which the heads grow larger in partial shade.

Onions

Many onions give a much tastier harvest not in bright sun, but in not overheated soil in diffused light. Instead of the growth of leaves and the rapid release of arrows, the growth of underground parts is stimulated in partial shade. Onions from among lettuce, sweet varieties, original edible and decorative perennial onions (primarily chives and slime onions) and a capricious favorite leek will gladly settle in more secluded lighting, especially in mixed plantings. Garlic gives a smaller yield, but if you want to free up space in the garden, you can place it in partial shade.

Read also our article Perennial onions for greens, which I recommend to grow for everyone.

Legumes

Peas, beans and beans are the best candidates for a semi-shady location among leguminous plants. In partial shade, you can safely grow low-growing, bushy varieties from among modern unpretentious hybrids that will give an excellent harvest even without full sun, requiring almost no care.

Horseradish and wild garlic - for full shade

If you do not plan to limit yourself to semi-shaded areas and are looking for plants for strong shade, pay attention to wild garlic and horseradish, which love areas under the crowns of trees and large shrubs.

What to plant in the shade? - Plants that grow well in the shade

Even from the school biology course, we remember that plants need sunlight. Without exposure to light, the process of photosynthesis in leaves and stems stops, and eventually the plant dies. Therefore, all recommendations for planting vegetables and berries begin, as a rule, with one sentence “choose a well-lit area”.

But in every dacha there are places where the sun's rays rarely reach. Under the crowns of fruit trees, by a fence, behind a house or behind a bathhouse, there is always an ownerless piece of land where one would like to plant something useful, but after all, a shadow. And what to plant in the shade if nothing grows there? It is not true, some vegetables and shrubs are acceptable in the shade, grow well and produce a crop, despite the meager "light ration".

Let's make a reservation right away that the shadow in the southern regions, in the middle lane and in the north are different concepts. And if in the south in partial shade you can grow cucumbers, and zucchini, and pumpkins and watermelons, then in the north you will have to do with greens and salads. Here we will consider crops that can be easily planted in the shaded areas of the Middle Strip.

Shade vegetables

Rhubarb

A versatile vegetable whose sour stems can be used to make anything from soups to desserts. Rhubarb bushes grow well in the shade, if you do not forget about timely watering. If you want to plant rhubarb, it is better to ask the neighbors for a part of the rhizome - then the bush will grow faster, gain strength and give juicy stems. When planting seeds, you will have to wait a year or two until the plant gets stronger.

Salads

Lettuce, Odessa kucheryavets and other types of leaf and head lettuce, sorrel, spinach, chard, arugula, watercress, leaf mustard feel great in a shaded garden. Perhaps they will not give such powerful leaves as in the sun, but they will remain tender for a long time, will not coarsen, will not be bitter, and will not go into color for a long time.

Ramson

Ramson or bear's onion, a plant that combines the taste of garlic and onion, is considered a medicinal plant. By adding a couple of wild garlic leaves to your spring salad, you will provide yourself and your family with an additional portion of vitamins. Since in nature the wild garlic grows in the forest, under the powerful crowns of trees, a thick shadow for her is her home.

Borago - borage

In the spring, when your cucumbers are not even planted for seedlings, the aroma and taste of a fresh cucumber in a salad will be provided by the leaves of borage - borage.

This plant is not afraid of shading and short-term frosts, is practically not affected by pests and does not cause any trouble in growing. But early vitamin greens are regularly supplied to the table by borage.

Garlic

For those who are not fond of canning vegetables for the winter, do not like spicy sauces, do not dry garlic to make powder, but grow it exclusively as a spicy seasoning, which does not need much, you can easily plant garlic in the shade under apple trees , plums or between currant bushes. The heads, perhaps, will be smaller, but then a whole garden bed will be freed up for more light-loving vegetables.

Greens and spicy herbs

Some spicy herbs, for example, basil will not survive without the sun, but parsley, celery, cilantro, mint, oregano, lovage, tarragon, lemon balm, thyme will grow in the twilight and delight you with their aroma . If you decide to grow a "green garden" under apple trees, do not forget to cover the planting with a film while spraying apple trees with chemicals to prevent poisons from getting on edible greens.

Beets

Gardeners who grow beets fall into two categories: some believe that beets should be powerful and large, others prefer small root crops that are both tastier and easier to cook. If you are closer to the second position, then feel free to plant beets in the shade of trees. Rare sunlight penetrating through the crown will be enough for her, and the root crops will not outgrow. You can also grow root parsley and parsnips in the shade.

Perennial onions

Chives and slime chives thrive in partial shade and their greens become more juicy. Chives grow well and in a couple of years can fill all the space allotted for it without your participation. In addition to early greenery, chives produce beautiful lilac flower caps that delight people and attract insects to the site.

Beans and broad beans

Not all beans and broad beans grow well and bear fruit in the shade, but shade-loving varieties can be found. It is especially recommended to plant them under apple trees and, after harvesting, leave the tops as a green fertilizer to improve and enrich the soil.

Horseradish

Horseradish is the king of shadow. Plant it in the darkest part of the garden, it will still grow and produce an excellent crop of tender leaves to use when pickling cucumbers.

Shade-growing berry bushes

Shrubs that naturally grow under the forest canopy tolerate shade well: shadberry, viburnum, chokeberry (chokeberry), blue honeysuckle. With them, the shady area will turn from a barren place into a real berry conveyor - just have time to collect.

Many wild roses are shade-loving. In the first half of summer, you will rejoice at their bright fragrant flowers and a cloud of useful bumblebees curling around, and in the fall you will harvest vitamin berries for drying.
