Yes, plants can still receive light in the shade, although the amount and intensity of light may be reduced compared to direct sunlight. Plants have adaptations to capture and utilize light efficiently, even in shaded conditions.
Yes, plants can still receive sunlight on a cloudy day, although the intensity of the sunlight may be reduced.
Yes, shadows can still be present in shade. Shadows are created when an object blocks light from reaching a surface, so even in shaded areas, if there is a source of light and an object obstructing that light, a shadow can still be formed.
No
Hostas are always a safe bet! They seem to thrive in any soil condition & you can grow them under trees too. There are none, they would all shrivel, just live those planets whose moons block it from the sun. (uneducated guess.)
light, shade, contrast and the positioning of objects to create a feeling of harmony is all important
it was a light purple (lilac) Actually, the name of the shade was Glaze, and it was a sheer magenta. I still have a tube!
They grow towards the light!
Yes, plants can effectively use artificial light for photosynthesis. Artificial light sources such as grow lights can provide the necessary light spectrum for plants to carry out photosynthesis, although natural sunlight is still the most ideal source of light for plants.
Yes, plants need light to photosynthesize and produce energy for growth. However, some plants can survive in low light conditions, but they may grow more slowly or become leggy as they stretch towards light sources.
Yes, there are still some UV rays present in the shade. While shade can provide some protection from direct sunlight, UV rays can still reflect off surfaces or penetrate through thin or light-colored fabrics. It is important to seek shade in addition to wearing sunscreen and protective clothing to minimize UV exposure.
No. In my experience, they actually tend to do better in about 6 - 8 hours of sun. Too much sun can cause scorching, since they are a little tender and don't like to dry out too much. I would say that they can still thrive in as low as 4 hours of light. They can tolerate more shade but they won't bloom or grow as well.
Some plants that thrive in low-light conditions include snake plants, pothos, peace lilies, and ZZ plants. These plants can survive in dimly lit rooms or areas with indirect sunlight. It's important to note that while they can tolerate low light, they still need some level of light to photosynthesize and grow.
