Good for foundation planting

Likes full blazing hot sun in Summer and being next to a brick wall

Well behaved (as in won't propagate itself via seeds & runners)

Evergreen

Won't mug your foundation

Compact (as in doesn't require constant pruning)

Is not a water hog

Likes sandy/clayey soil?

I offered up my bed in front of the house on Craigs list and everything was gone 6 hours after I listed it. It was old and full of monkey grass, spiderwort, uninteresting iris and those red amaryllis you see everywhere. I'll spend the rest of the summer clearing the weeds and whatever tries to come back. I'd like to start trading for plants I'll need within the next few weeks .. would love some ideas of what to do with it other than azalea. The only absolute requirement is "well behaved".
