I wish I were in my old house for you; it faced east/west so the ends were north/south and the north side was all hostas which I did not care for, find boring, and I would have sent them to you, LOL.

I have a wisteria in a pot (to cover the "hidden" fence put-the-ladder-behind-the-shed opening between my neighbor and myself) and it's nice purple and tall and nice.

I have my veggie garden out front and usually just plant different colored marigolds and the like in there randomly for a bit more color. The veggie fruits (tomatoes) and vines have color and yellow flowers here and there.
