Injecting some colour around bottom of fence - any tips?

[Anne75D]

I have a section of exposed fence around the base of a honeysuckle that is looking very bare (approx. 1.5ft x 4 to 5ft).

I'd love to have a display of colour throughout the year and something that would cover the fence well (up to about 2 feet). My first thought were geraniums but I'm a novice gardener so would love to get your thoughts. Any ideas what I could plan along that fence? It does get some sun but not all day.

Thanks!

Heuchera...lovely plants flower in summer autumn and stay healthy all year round. Bees love the flowers too.

I have heucheras which are fantastic, they come in almost every colour even some really bright unnatural colours like pale purple and black and pink and are evergreen.
I have ajuga reptans black scallop too which is gorgeous but you do have to keep an eye on it as it can be invasive.

Geraniums are lovely. There are two in particular which will scramble up the fence a bit and flower all summer - Anne Folkhard and Rozanne .

Also try spring bulbs - miniature narcissus, grape hyacinth, miniature tulips and small alliums, or maybe Japanese anemone for later in the year.
