Lol Ron. I am the queen of overplanting but will try to keep others from the same fate lol. For some reason, I have found the the yellow kangaroo paws fare better in the garden than the red. Dunno why.

Jen, do not feed the sage and they will probably be fine. They are easy and do not care about being hacked on and divided. The ones i have along the fence do not get as wide althiugh they are tallish at bloom time. They bloom late so it is nice to have them when all else is gone.

Not a great picture, but this dwarf hibiscus is a nice filler. You can train it up or down as well.

The sooner the better to train a potato bush into a tree. They are a fast grower so the window of opportunity is small. You can always put them in the ground in 5 gal pots until you decide for sure if you want them there. I wish I had done this with a few more things.
