Hello! While I do still have a lawn, I like the idea of using more of it for gardens and flowers. I already have six raised beds but this area along my retaining wall was mulched when I moved in three years ago. I don’t care to mulch it and would like to plant sturdy flowers that will come back every year.
Any suggestions for what to plant here?

Located in southwestern PA!
Native flowers would look great there: Black eyed Susans, purple coneflower, butterfly weed, etc. Hardy plants.
If it gets sun but not *too* much, an alternative to flowers might be hey scented fern.
Diervilla Ionicera
Northern bush honeysuckle. Native, spreads, green in summer red leaves in fall, flowers.
