Recent blows have left a huge hole in my front bed ...a heavily supported large tree was finally removed for safety reasons after the 65mph winds took it out.

Suggestions?

Year round interest would be a plus and obviously since its a fairly shallow raised area ..no Trees! =)
Zone 6 a here. And it's full sun.

Piersis Mountain fire bush was not successful here..red hot pokers and roses and obviously barberrys are strong here. The one gaura I tried is lovely ...I will probably introduce more to the edges and the persicaria is out of control for the other end but what for the "showy" middle. The trellis is for climbing roses that are just in their first year...probably 2 more years before they fill it in.
