What to grow, weird light situation

Hey all! I have a problem..I cant decide what plants will work on this one side of my house. The place in question seems to be shadowed by the house until around 4 pm then it gets hit with full sun until the sun sets, 730ish right now. This area gets no sunlight in the winter or early spring I noticed. I think as the season progresses the sun will light this area a little sooner, but i just dont know what plants to use because i am not sure if the little bit of late afternoon light is enough to qualify for part sun. Flowers, herbs, veggies, bushes...i dont care i just need to landacape this area. I would prefer plants that dont have big water requirements and grow faster than slower.

A side note, this season i will be using tire planters as i just had to convert this area from lawn and I do not want to dig through the mulch and cardboard just yet. Eventually i would like to plant everything in the ground.
