What can I plant in here?
I have a concrete flower box that runs the width of my living room windows. It only receives morning sun and not a lot at that. I believe it has a concrete bottom so drainage is minimal. The soil is not great in there. Photo below:
Over the years I have planted some sort of annuals in this bed but I’m tired of dealing with that. I need to know what I can plant in this place that meets the following requirements:
Low maintenance
Hardy
Drought tolerant- I’m a lazy waterer and it gets no rain water due to an overhang
Heat tolerant
Perennial
I want to plant something that only requires I water it from time to time.
Suggestions?

I know the people that own this company. These are beautiful, hardy and live well in the shade. Hard to find in stores though. And check out the different purples!

About Helleborus
Helleborus, or Hellebore is a popular shade loving perennial with season spanning appeal. Colorful and attract, their blooms are some of the earliest of perennials to flower in the shade garden. Lenten Rose holds tremendous eye-appeal as dried flowers gracefully display themselves on season-spanning textural foliage. We couldn�t image shade gardening without hellebores. Although hellebores will grow in a wide range of soil they perform their best in a soil where organic matter has been added. Organic matter can be compost, rotted manure, composted leaves, or peat moss.Garden Designs Hellebores are very appealing in the landscape when planted in groupings, used as a ground cover, or tucked in a north facing location. Their foliage and appearance complements Hostas, Brunnera, and Ferns. Hellebores are an excellent shade ground cover that is also deer resistant
