They look cool. I really struggle with that lady.
Anyway, too late. I've pulled the trigger. White forsythia and magnolia shrubs to cover the bins. 'Fire Power' to grow in front of the peony - sort of referencing the 'Red Robin' bushes we have on the street side wall.
The hellebore collection for under the fur tree at the back and probably in a couple of other places - probably the two light ones underneath the forsythia / magnolia.
Plus some others just because.

If you get the right Japanese/Chinese hybrid it’s apparently got a fantastic nutmeg-like scent and great flowers starting from January.
