I live in a very windy place so they can dry out considerably even with regular watering, but this year I tried Scaevola (does grow upwards so plant lower down) and ordinary begonias which are lovely and have done well. There's always Lobelia, trailing petunias, tagetes, Bacopa, ivy, then see what others say.
I work very hard so don't expect me to think as well.
