Light for herbs
Thank you, Marianne, for your prior answers.
Now I am wondering if parsley, chives, and basil can be grown in part shade with sun in the afternoon beginning around 1:00 p.m. along with a few flowers that will grow in that light. I appreciate your time and expertise.

Yes, but the basil will suffer the most as this herb loves heat. As long as you give the plants five to six hours of full sun in the afternoon you can still be successful. Happy to help, Keep Growing, Marianne Binetti
