roses and birds of paradise do well in full sun. (note:you dont have to water birds of paradise everyday they do need the soil to dry a bit for best care.) hydranga do well in part sun/part shade. azeala must be shaded most of the day. cow lilies and iris also do well but need to be water regularly.





Hope this helps..... I also live in sunny so cal.


watch out plants can also get wind burn.
Reply:for direct sun I would say roses and shaded areas are impatients . those are two of my favs and I live in florida so tell me about sun. LOL!!!
Reply:I have a petunia that blooms like crazy in full sun. Also, almost any cactus or succulent. My Venus fly trap does awesome in full sun. Peace lilies only do well in shade. I'm trying to grow an orchid now and they are 50% shade plants.
