Hello fellow Austin gardeners! Last fall we had a retaining wall built and put down zoysia. At the end of the grass about 6 feet from the back fence is a 4 foot drop into drainage rocks. I want to plant a continuous border across the full 40 feet to soften the edge and add some color/structure. There is a large cedar elm canopy over most of the middle space, so it's dappled to moderate shade and the sides get more partial shade.
I would like mostly evergreen or semi evergreen but want color. I went to BSN and they suggested Amistad salvia and unplugged red salvia for color. Still looking for evergreen shrub recs as well.
Curious on everyone's thoughts and what y'all would do with the space. Appreciate any advice in advance!
