Default Need a cascading flowering hanging basket in the shade

"David E. Ross" advised:

Try impatiens.


What about petunias? They'll bloom as long as you keep feeding, watering,
and pinching off the spent blooms. There are many varieties made for
hanging baskets, and if you bring them indoors in the fall, they'll
continue to bloom. I've done it, but have to admit, that after a while
they get to be too leggy and not nearly so nice, so then I throw them out
to freeze and die.

Petunias need sun or part sun. They don't grow in the shade.
