Plants for an east facing wall

Needing ideas for plants including shrubs for an east facing wall that only gets a couple of hours of early morning sun. They need to be able to be grown in pots and relatively low maintenance

    I've just purchased hypericum little misstery with variegated foliage, it'll grow in full sun or full shade and is 'patio container ideal' image

    Euonymus such as E. fortunei Emerald 'n' Gold or Silver Queen. They are not strictly climbers, but if you give them a bit of trellis and plant in a large pot they will scramble up the wall. I have one that gets very liittle sunlight (N/E facing) and helps mask my oil tank. Mine is planted in the ground and is no maintenance!
