Replanning trees in border

I’m going to replan this border because the dying eucalyptus tree needs removal.

At the same time, I’ll remove a few other unwanted trees like the bay laurel (just discovered that’s what it was after buying bay leaves for years 😂). May keep the forsythia.

I like the idea of an amelanchier and possibly a cherry or apple tree.

Any suggestions for what could be nice in that space of this south facing garden.

Oh, I wouldn't go for elderberry, you'll never be able to hang your washing out. Birds eat the berries and then drop purple poo everywhere.
