It depends on the plant. If the plant has very large leave, it has adapted to living in an area where sunlight isn't very prominent. Then that ppant would probably be better of in shade. And if the plant has smaller leaves it will need more sunlight. Hope I helped...

What do you call the plants that live in shady places?

Plants which grow in shady places are called Shade Tolerant Plants......Like in the Amazon forest..where the plantation is very thick and trees grow tall and enormous.
