Cleaning Out and Replanting

Since the warm weather is sure to be here to stay very soon, I am getting ready to add some new plants to my little container collection.  The violas are looking pretty wimpy with the 99 degree weather last week, so I think it's time to replace them with something that can take the heat.  The spider mites seem to have won the battle for my large Golden Rain Rosemary, very sad.  So, I have that large pot to fill with something, too. 

I'm not sure yet what I want to plant, so I think I'll just clean out my pots, give them a bath with some light bleach solution and take a trip to the garden center this weekend and look for something new and beautiful for the shady spots. 

 Anyone have a favorite plant for light shade that will do well in a container???
