  Hello. I recently bought a property along a river in New Canaan , CT- that has some erosion issues. I would appreciate it very much if you can provide assistance on best plants for PT shade planting ideas. I have permission to remove invasive plants and would like to replace them with native plants that are wildlife friendly. Ground-cover, shrubs, trees, ferns. Area has a micro-climate 6B. Deer-resistant.
