I could see dividing the area sort of like this, along anything sort of like the three lines, and 2 focal points. (first drawing)
Or, a bit less of yin yang, 3 groupings:
The ovals would still be larger plants, surrounded by lower plants. Select a 3rd lower growing plant (perhaps even lower than the Platycodons) for the front section
The diamond, at the junction of 3 low growing areas could be the birdbath.

Perhaps in your next drawing you could show where the house is, especially the window that looks out into this area. Yes, several more photos would help, too.
