I have next week off for yardwork, and my shady garden needs some love!

I'm not great at gardening but I do try. It's mostly difficult because it's an expensive hobby and I have little skill 🤷‍♀️

Last year we ripped out a hedge that we couldn't keep up with, and my intention was to have a wildflower garden here. The problem is that it doesn't get enough sun, so it looked sad.

I already planned to clear out the leaves from the fall , and take down the cheap Dollar Tree fencing I put up . I also plan to clean up the bird bath a bit.

Im looking for some advice on how to make this prettier on a budget. I live in Maine, and while the garden gets some light it's mostly shaded the majority of the day.

Please be kind!
