I have a (new this summer) planter box along the base of a north-facing fence in my back yard (zone 9B). It's pretty shady, both from the fence and from an overhanging Australian Hopbush privacy hedge. Is there anything I can plant this fall that would survive our (pretty mild) winter and give the area some color in the spring and summer? I already have Fuchsias, Hellebores, some Bacopa (blue ones; the white ones apparently found it too shady), and a couple of smallish ferns in the box (it's about 21 feet long and 3 feet deep by 2 feet high). It gets ample water from a drip system. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
