Is morning shade and afternoon sun considered to be part shade/part sun or part sun/part shade? or either? Sometimes I get confused as to what I have. My garden is on the northwest corner of my house and it has morning shade and afternoon sun. When I purchase plants, I have no idea what to buy?

I purchased a Pieris Japonica Valentine today and not quite sure if it will grow well in morning shade and afternoon sun. The tag says it will grow to 2m.

Thanks again for your help.
