Default New banana pad location- is this a good spot?

I recently bought some corms from another member here and had planned to make another banana pad inside my fence. After some thought I noticed that the new proposed site will be shaded from the west and south by being in the corner of a 6' tall wooden fence. So the only direct sun will be from the east until the sun gets behind the fence in the west. Will the plants get sufficient sunlight at this location? I'm in central Florida- zone 9.

The plants will be Dwarf Orinoco so at maturity should peek over the fence but wanted some other opinions on this location. I made a primitive power point showing the general layout. Keep in mind this is a corner lot with the road in front of the driveway and on the south side- no it's not to scale either.
