Herbs like Oregano, rosemary, lavender do well in sun. Salvia has nice flowers and the bees love it. Think Jasmine might do ok but not sure.

By vertical plant box thing do you mean living wall type systems? They have very little soil in so if it's sunny you'll want the same sort of things that work in cracks in walls - things that can cope with hardly any water. Erigeron karvinskianus, campanula, that sort of thing.
For low maintenance shrubs, first decision is if you want evergreens, if you need them to look good in winter, as that reduces your options to a more manageable level. Choisiya X dewittwana or choisiya ternata are nice.

Hello.
I'm after some plant advice.
I've got a south facing wall, I'd like to do some vertical plant box thing on it.
What can go in now, take the kicking the sun will give it, flower (for pollinators), be easy to look after etc etc?
We turned our yard to concrete 4 or so years ago - it was brick before and we needed a shed. We've got stuff in planters. We want more stuff in planters. Hopefully you know flowery bush things that need little care and attention.
What should I look for?
