I will Lolly. I think you need something to pop out that black or purple foliage. Otherwise you won't see it as well. I have a lot of dark foliage and it doesn't always stand out unless it's accented in some way. I have three chocolate mimosas in this bed and unless you look you can't really see them. Once everything got big they had a nice background of green to pop them out. Silver or red would have been better.
