Try to keep it interesting and don't let a set plan keep you from having
fun with it. Have a bird bath, a place for sunflowers and other colorful
things, and other stuff like a trellece arcway. Raised beds and mulch are
kind of visually bland especially during periods when flowering is
limited.

That is so true. Even with trellises I got tired
of gray/brown during our so-called winter,
and painted parts of the trellises blue. Looks
nice. I also add the occasional Mexican
art pottery for color.
