Photo of LARGE POT IN SHADE

I had a barrel planter last year that I loved, mixing perennials (so I could plant them in the landscape in the fall; but could be left in the pot) with annuals. The contents were:
Dragon's Wing begonia (which became HUGE by the end of the summer)
Gold Hosta
Heuchera
Lady's Mantle
Variegated Liriope
Goldfish plant
Portulaca (which didn't end up getting enough sun and had too much moisture because of the needs of the other plants)

Here's a pic soon after planting.

Good luck and happy planting!
