I've got a raised area of garden that extends across a corner of the garden (imagine a triangle shape) at its widest its about 35ft. It slopes down about 3ft into the corner of the garde. (Its actually made up of rubble left over from when we built our house) I've planted it up with some feather grasses, a yucca, agapanthus , verbena bonasaris, euphobia. The thing is the back corner is so dry and just looks gappy and quite bare. I did plant some dogwood there thinking it'd look nice in the winter but to be honest it didnt look good so I've moved it. I've decided to 'extend the ''prairie look'' by adding Achillea Moonshine, Echinacea and some Stipa gigantia and Miscanthis Sinesis 'Kleine' Silberspinne. But,, I'm not sure how many plants to buy and when to repeat the plants, I want it to look quite beth catto-esque and drifty but at the same time I dont want it to look like I've shoved as many different types of plants in there randomly. As the 2 big grasses will be quite large should I but 3 of each? ANY ideas and advice gratefully received
