I have a creek on my property that is heavily shaded and at the bottom of a hill. What plants would grow best in the shade and help slow erosion and stabilize the creek bed walls? Thanks.

Here is a horticulture link for your question about native plants. This website also has links to OSU and CMNH that might help inform your decision.
You may also find information or contacts on the Ohio State University Extension Master Volunteers website here.
