Recovered & Ready for phase 2

Greentown, IN(Zone 5b)

Now that I have somewhat recovered from all that rock I put in for my waterfront I need help deciding what to put into that rock.

My initial idea was to take rocks of different sizes and place them as if they had just washed up onshore. I got the idea from this photo of a garden that I am attaching....see the area where the rocks are all different sizes but work together to create a natural look. That is what I had wanted. I was going to plant grasses, zebra and some striped (not sure of the name) grasses that I have. However I have discovered that snakes abound here and that I would not do so well to have a bunch of plant life on the shore. So I did plant some striped bullrushes intot he water and some variegated lily grass? so that I would have some living things.

Now what? pieces of driftwood? No stautes....not for this area. It has to be as if nature put it there.
