Hi,
Got some.space for 4-5 bonsai trees in an area of the garden where they get light and wind but little to No direct sunlight. Any trees you think would make it there?

I'm not sure about their survival in your climate, but
  • camellia
  • azalea - evergreen/satsuki varieties.
  • buxus (boxwood)
  • taxus (yew)
  • andromeda (pieris)
  • ozmanthus
generally do well in shade and are okay with breezy conditions (excepting their flowers).

Nandina (heavenly bamboo) can be a nice landscape planting (not bonsai 🤮)

I am not recommending any of them to you, just listing possibilities that come to mind.

Not to forget Yew as a low-light potential. I do not know whether they live in Beirut.
