What to plant here?

This is along the side if my house. I have a home daycare and this I the "entrance" area. Any ideas on what to plant for fall? I was thinking some mums, but would love some other ideas. The smal cutback shrubs (3 of them) in the picture are roses that are cut down to the ground every year. There are also day lilies that bloom every year....which gets me through August and then it's empty....

    Lets start with the basics - What is you zone, does this face N E W or S and how wide ? Need this much if we are going to give you a good answer. Mums are great for full sun and only bloom in the fall. If you have people walking by in the spring and summer, you will need earlier bloomers. Eventually if not already the dwarf Alberta Spruce will get too large for the space.
