Under

Question by still learning at 56:

What plants will grow under an evergreen tree?



I have an area directly under my almost 3-story (40 year old) evergreen tree where nothing seems to grow except for a few weeds. I really would love to have some low growing plants there as it is close to the patio, but do not know of any plants that are compatible with an evergreen. Any ideas at all would be much appreciated. I live in the midwest area of USA, St Louis Missouri to be more specific. The tree and area underneath is a northwest exposure. The branches are cut about 6 to 7 feet high off the ground so it can be walked under, so there is not a problem with it being super shady. Thanks for the advice!
If possible, I would love to plant perennials, but if I have to I will go with annuals.
