Cascading Plants?

[Gardening with Zach]

We have a few planters (6”x6”x36”) that sit on top of our deck railing. I’m trying to find an annual plant that will sort of cascade/trail down over the railing and create some extra privacy. Fast growing is preferred, but any recommendations would be amazing!

Wisteria, cherry tomatoes, what would you like?

Honestly not sure, but a plant thick enough to create a wall of greenery. Does wisteria do well is a relatively small container?

For a while. It can cover a house eventually. What about Kudzu? Its rapid and has big leaves. Its pretty invasive around here. Maybe multi plant scene is better and more interesting?

Never have even heard of kudzu, but just did some quick research and apparently it is illegal to buy in Illinois. Kinda makes sense at it is starting to invade this state as well. Maybe I could go out into the woods and try to find some haha. Was thinking about throwing some lantana in there with whatever type of vines I go with
