    I am actually coming up kind of blank on chocolate coloured plants. Only one I can think of is coleus. They come in some chocolate-like shades. There must be a lot more.

    There's a brown sedge, don't know it's proper name as it came from a friend's garden and she couldn't remember, that does very well in shade for me. Epimediums, some of the euphorbias. Can't think of any more.

    Googling "Bronze foliage" might be better than "brown", nurserymen like fancy names for colours.
