Dry shade? #nativeplants got that covered. White wood aster (Eurybia divaricata) around the base of an oak.
Easy from seed, and they gently self sow.

@plants Earlier I posted a pic of a beautiful Lacewing on Dianthus buds. Here are some more views of some of the bazillion of those plants here- in only a hint of the range of colours/patterns they will come in. They are much loved by #pollinators especially #Butterflies such as the Skipper seen in one of the shots.
