Topmost plant is one I am trialing since it doesn't have nearly as much sun as it would like. It's Rhus typhina 'Bailtiger,' or Tiger Eye Sumac. I love the chartreuse against the dark red brick which is usually in more shade. The void comes in the form of the white, heart-leaved perennial, Brunnera macrophylla 'Jack Frost,' aka Siberian Bugloss. It seems to tolerate the little sun it does receive, in a heavy dose around noon, and has shown relatively little scorch except during drought.
A few feet over you can see maximum texture, minimal color variation. The mostly green palette is done with Box, Coral Bells, Spurge, Periwinkle, Geranium, Anemone, Autumn Moor Grass and the annual: Philodendron...do I get a prize for remembering all the common names?
