| Will the area be totally shaded in the afternoon, or still get some sun (light)? Although they work best in full sun, wave petunias would work very well - any type of petunia would work. They would look fine alone - put in a lot of plants, maybe mix the colors - and they will spread all over and give you a good show. But they also look great with just about any other plant. I love petunias, so I'll put them in pots by themselves, as well as use them in the windowboxes. But I tend to treat my windowboxes as a sort of "cottage garden", so I'll mix in all sorts of plants with the petunias - salvia, persian shield, daisies, spikes, ornie grasses, sweet potato vine, etc., etc. Works for me. Whatever you decide, petunias of any sort will give you a great display of color for months on end! Good luck with your "new" morning sun! PV |
