Hi all,
I have a planting area of about 3' by 12', so not much, but I'd like it to look nice. It's bright shade, irrigated (but not heavily; I'm in droughty California). I've seen the lists for shade plants, especially dry shade, but I would love to have suggestions for combinations of plants that would grow well together. What shrubs, perennials, annuals would you put together to make an interesting border? There's nothing but mulch there at the moment, so consider it a blank slate. 
thanks in advance,
Kay Dreher
