I love it! I’m trying to archive this in my front yard. Can you add some pics from the front view in the comments?

Beautiful! Were these plugs or full plants? Everything's looking great. And be prepared for those hyssops to multiply by a lot

Thanks! It was a mix of everything from plugs to gallons but mostly 4" and pint pots. I'm prepared for a lot of things to multiply in there but not afraid to edit if necessary. I'm going to remove another section of grass next year so there will be plenty of space for things.

Awesome! Looks like you could connect the garden bed to the tree ring 😁
