Needs a pattern/plan to look better. Do you have any ideas, or especially any pics of another strip garden you've seen? thanks! View Larger

Do you want any "pass through" areas so you can have access to your yard? If you add one or two pass through paths you could break up the strip into smaller areas, focusing on a particular plant, color, or height in each one.
