What kind of tropical plants do well in a shady yard?

I have a very shady yard. I love tropical looking plants. What are good, besides hostas, that grow well in the shade? Also, I need color. There is too much green!


What are some tropical fruits?


How can i get rid of garden pests (mainly slugs) with things that i may find in the common household??

Every year i have a slug problem in my garden but i don’t like using pesticides. I was told to place a pie pan full of beer in the garden at ground level and it would kill them, but all i got was drunk slugs. Any hints will be tried.
