What should I plant here?

That area is so small, the only thing I'd consider would be flowers like impatiens. Four of them spread out 6" across will fill that area easy if you plant them in spring. If you expand it about 4x, I'd check to see if some hydrangea plant does well in your climate, because impatiens are somewhat low to the ground, and some big bushy hydrangeas next to the fence would like nice (maybe fit two in a space 4x that size).
 
Hops and barley.

Not a bad spot for a herb garden though. Plant some chives and basil. Chives are pretty much indestructible.
 
I guess it would depend on what plants you like and how tall you would like the plants to grow.

roses are good. snapdragons, marigolds, daylillies, petunias, etc...

if you are looking at native plants that are drought tolerant, I would recommend asters, catnip, Columbine, coneflower, black-eyed susan, etc...
 
Why are the cross boards on one section of your fence higher than the cross boards on the next section over?
 
Do an ornamental tree of some kind, we have a 3 foot tall blue spruce we love in our back yard, we also have some potted dwarf Alberta spruce we really like too.
