This is one of my first garden beds. I guess it isn't looking too bad thanks to those asters that I snagged by the railroad tracks. And the shrubbery is maturing nicely too. Since this photo was taken I have moved the Silver Mound and planted a Big Daddy hosta there instead. It is getting a little too much sun right now and looks more green than blue, but once the birch grows up it should get plenty of shade.
