I've always like Garrya eliptica 'James Roof' for off-season show planted under large evergreens, mix it with an understory planting of Gaultheria mucronata 'Wine-something' and a few Viburnum x bodnantense 'Dawn' and it makes a good display. Estreya, you have such a large area you could always make a little meadow area with stream to a pond lower down. I came across this nice planting of Guara lindheimer 'White Fountain' with some cool grasses blowing in the breeze. Add a few Gentiana asclepiadea and some nice Ericas and some bolders and you've got a mountain-top meadow.
