This design relies on shades of black, burgundy and pink to tie together a stunning design that handles full sun and tough conditions. As a smaller-space alternative to the 'Standing Ovation' serviceberry, you can try BlackLace (TM) Elderberry (Sambucus nigra). The Gaura and Allium, both "see-through plants," are designed as a succession planting so plant the bulbs beneath.
