If full sun, and you want color all season long, annuals are what you need. Just go to a garden center and look at the variety, look on the tag for full sun. The New Guinea impatiens are very bright and colorful, do well in sun. You don’t want the standard shade loving impatiens regardless. Moss roses are drought tolerant, and colorful. If you want taller, snapdragons mixed with alyssum would work.

There are new annual hybrids that on the market these days, that come in slightly larger pots. The wave petunias are one of these varieties. Know that they do need regular watering and some fertilizer periodically to look their best.
