East facing garden

    Just gone sale agreed on a house. The garden is a major attraction for us. It is nearly 90 foot long, good condition, not overlooked to rear, nice mature trees etc. It faces East though, today at 2pm we were in it, (if you can imagine a line from the back of the house to the end garden wall roughly half way through the garden) well one half was in full light and other half was in shade. There is a wall to one side with a high hedge in the neighbours garden which is probably blocking some of the light but obviously this will always be there.

    Anyone to cut a very long-winded post short is an east facing garden a big disadvantage?
    We love the house, location, price etc.

    Yeah its not a disadvantage, just be sure not to go for plants that require full sun so go for semi shade/shade loving plants. Also, I would stay away from early flowering plants and take care to warm up your soil in Spring before planting.
