Great suggestion Ann,

I have used ferns, hostas & even cypress trees in my shaded area in pots. Neal, If you plant some of the perennials that are Zone 2 or 3, then they would probably winter over in the container, if it is large enough. Not recommended for clay pot though, they would break.

I have some ferns that have wintered over in half wooden barrels for a couple of years now.
