Fantastic Fatsia are just the thing for a shady area.  Big, bold beautiful leaves are a given and the fact they are tough cookies too all adds to their value as a fantastic foliage plant.  Happy in the ground and in containers Fatsia are an excellent choice for a dark area and can provide drama and substance.  A great mid-border option as Fatsia are evergreen and reach about 2m overall.
