So this is the border I need to plant plus the other you can't see on the other side. Am pining for fruit trees so apple or pear would seem sensible. worried that pear too fastigiate in form? am open to suggestions...

I am also quite tempted to chuck two trees in - Malus of some kind?

Feel is to be a bit more floriferous than the rest of the garden praps??


Libertia, liriope, gernium, paeonia, euphorbia, hydrangea, hellebores, tellima, astrantia, luzula, ferns, pulmonaria, smilacina, sarcococca. symphitum.

possibly on rear trellis/fence, put roses or white flowering quince ...

as alternatives to Iceberg, love both Mme Alfred /Carriere - good on North wall, vigorous climber, constant flowering adn Countess of Wessex is shrub rose (can it be enticed into being a small climber?) with continuous flowering described by Peter Beale as like  Iceberg
