Catmint is a good one, and some of the threadleaf coreopsis is good, but wouldn't flow over the bulb foliage as much. If you did that, you could even keep the lilies where they are. Knautia is another good one that would flow over the other stuff. There are different sizes of daylilies that may work there, too.Corner Gardener Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10631500918579405664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1947997585334958395.post-33918239607950585662011-06-27T12:46:44.399-04:002011-06-27T12:46:44.399-04:00Some flowerbeds require time, time for us to figur...Some flowerbeds require time, time for us to figure out what we want in them. I've replanted a few beds a few times!

I can't remember if heaths and heathers are hardy there, but they would work. But they absolutely have to be pruned every year after they flower.<br /><br />One thing you can do with those shastas next year is cut all the stems back by half some time in May (I think probably May for you, maybe April). They should flower shorter and a little bit later. I agree the lilies should be planted together in one or two clumps.Alisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16323262555906240701noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1947997585334958395.post-63161865430073034192011-06-26T18:15:15.613-04:002011-06-26T18:15:15.613-04:00One plant I'm really impressed with this year ...One plant I'm really impressed with this year is the 'Knock Out' rose. Because it is always in bloom it could be a focal point for your border with perennials that come and go throughout the season. The flowers are about the same color as your lilies so there could be a color echo with them. Also I'd plant a few smallish evergreen shrubs for permanence and maybe a low-growing evergreen groundcover, like Candytuft for edging. Good luck with this project.GRACE PETERSONhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04520343332670354262noreply@blogger.com
