Any ideas on what flowers grow in shaded areas?

AthenaGenesis asked:
I have a flower bed up against the back of my house and which is completely covered by the overhead deck. I want to plant some plants there, but don’t know which flowers grow best in very shaded areas? Also there is a large rabbit population in my neighborhood and would like to plant flowers that the rabbits wouldn’t be so eager to eat.

Hostas will come back year after year. There are many different varieties. Coleus grows well in shade as well as impatiens

The protection that the rhodos might also like hostas for shaded areas astilbe is has wonderful wispy bloom now have these in shade and they will spread as their roots do not grow spread as well in my shady areas they are beginning to bloom blooms in my shady areas they will grow deep also.
