Looking for suggestions . . .

. . . for a tropicalesque plant with a trailing habit that can be planted and allowed to drape down over the brick walls of raised beds; something that has some color in the leaves or from flowers. Should be hardy for zone 9A (New Orleans).

Thanks!!!
Dave

Those bright green ornamental sweet potato vines would make a dramatic statement in a situation like that.

There is a lot of trailing lantana in NO. I like the look of russelia (firecracker fern), but the hot orange/pink of the blooms clashes with most other flowers.
