I have some semperviviums, a couple of grasses, and a couple of tall purple things I can't remember the name of. I may also plant an Acer there that is suffering from a bit of scorch in the back garden. (I think it will prefer the front).
The only things I can think of in a naturally white setting are snow drops, although I am sure there are alpine settings which must have largely white ground.
Thanks for all the replies. I have had a look around and I am now thinking that I might get some "cotswold buff". It is off-white and I think will fit in with the rest of the stone, concrete, etc better. (Not to mention being significantly cheaper!)
Nick.
