Any alpines, house leeks etc, is your best bet here, growing from seed make take you an age though!Best wishes

Harbinger of Rhubarb tales -
If its a wall thatsd going to get sun, why not use it to grow fruit. You can fan them out against the wall and still get an edible crop
Peaches, plums or any of the berries like loganberry .
Wou could also train apples or pears against the wall.
Just a thought.
And when your back stops aching,
And your hands begin to harden.
You will find yourself a partner,
In the glory of the garden.

Wallflowers Only joking. I'll second andrews selection and add Herbs and Lavender to to the list as these will have a more intense scent due to being baked. Also try looking at the hardy annuals as thes won't mind the poor soil conditions. Just make sure you have drainage in the wall otherwise you'll just have a long narrow bog garden
Hepe that helpsntg
Never be afraid to try something new.

You could try St Peter Port Daisy/Mexican Fleabane - it grows quite well from seed.Comment
