Gardening

Any budding Titchmarshes or Dimmocks lingering on the boards?

We moved into a house last year which a north facing front 'garden'. I say garden. It's a very poorly laid piece of astroturf roughly 7x3 metres and with weeds growing up through it, cat shit a plenty and a drain cover in the middle with a dead pot plant on top.

My plan is to rip up the astro, pull up all weeds, rake over the soil, sprinkle a bit of fertiliser down, cover it with membrane, then gravel the lot of it, with plants and shrubs of various heights and types and colours planted about.

Trouble is I don't really know what I'm doing. Especially when it comes to the actual plants. I reckon I can make a good go of the membrane and gravel bit- how hard can it be?

Talk to me BBS experts. What are good plants and shrubs for a shady north facing garden?

TIA
