Thought I would post a pic of one of my small beds. This is the Sunflower feeder and I've put a few things around it that seem to hold up to the constant squirrel activity. Earlier this summer the irises bloomed I have 3 of them one is a varigated variety that hasn't bloomed for me but has pretty fronds. There is a Coconut Lime Echinacea blooming now it's new this year and doesn't have many blooms yet not very noticeable in this pic as it is planted on the other side. There is also a newly planted varigated grass on that side too newly added to form an opinion on that one yet. The highlight of this bed is the Heliopsis I got from Critter a couple of years ago. There are also volunteer sunflowers and corn stalks that come up every year to add to the mix.
Edited to add:
Doc, I was thinking that some of your purple millet would look very nice in this bed.
