Okay, here's a closeup of the area that probably needs to be replanted. Not much is in bloom right now, but the color scheme of this bed in general (such as it is) is yellow, salmon/peach, silver, purple, and magenta.

This are is planted with daylilies (Stella d'Oro starting to bloom there in front), lunaria, lychnis coronaria, Eryngium, potentilla, bearded iris, columbine, and some byzantine glads that are just getting crushed. There is also a purple foliaged canna that is coming up next to the Stella d'Oro, which will be next in line for decimation if I leave it there.

The area is south facing, mostly sunny, and probably the warmest, most protected spot I have (from the weather that is, not from basketballs). Oh, and there is a clematis (purple starburst) and climbing rose (Polka) going up the wall behind.

Anyone have any thoughts?
