Douglas Hunt on Jul 01, 2013La Mac, I just encountered a plant at the Atlanta Botanical Garden that I think would be great for a spot like that: Callirhoe involucrata, or purple poppy mallow.Helpful Reply

Rivka I on Jul 01, 2013How about purple sedum on the right and yellow daisies on the left. Any trim back the bush! Nothing wrong with it going out on the sides but it is falling over and covering up the fountain.Helpful Reply

Wendy M on Jul 02, 2013In the wider container I would find a unique small trellis and plant a Clematis with wave petunias in the front or something that is showy that you can change out for the different seasons. As for the other smaller container I'd trim back the shrub and plant the same showy flowers as in the other container. Take a picture when your done but I'm sure whatever you do will look great!Helpful Reply
