"Full sun"
generally means that plants should receive and tolerate at least six
hours or more of direct
sunlight per
day given that the most intense sunlight occurs mostly in the
afternoon (with a little in the late morning),
shadows during these
hours have a big effect on how much light plants receive. Six hours of
direct sun during the morning is very different from the same six
hours in the afternoon. Morning sun, even if it is six hours worth of
direct sun is still not strong enough to be considered anything more
than partial sun (or part shade) The afternoon sun has a stronger
intensity which makes it more powerful.
