This little area between the sidewalk and fence needs a new style. I'm not 100% sure what the previous owners had planted in it, but most things don't seem to be doing great. I think there are some mini roses that are dead. The heucheras (i think that's what they are) seem to be doing OK, but they don't really do anything for me. There are two hostas that really aren't doing well so I'll dig those up and move them to the backyard.

I'm looking for something that can handle the hot and humid weather we have in NW Ohio without too much care. I'd prefer something low to the ground that is pretty most of the summer and fall. I'm thinking of doing tulips for spring color. Maybe some ornamental peppers or something like that.

I prefer perennials, but wouldn't mind mixing in some annuals to change it up yearly, or to use until any sort of mass planting takes over.
