Plant selection for hilly\rock garden

Hi,

Our house is built on a sloping block. Our front garden (picture attached) is has patches of 'deeper' soil and some that is 30-45cm deep before you hit large rock that you cannot dig through.

We are looking for suggestions of what plants would tolerate this kind of soil. Specifically, along the fence line we would like to plant something to provide some privacy to our neighbours. What sort of tree or shrub would tolerate shallow roots like above?

We were given a Crepe Myrtle but were afraid of planting it there in case it wouldnt tolerate the lack of soil.

Any tips would be appreciate.

Cheers,

Andrew
