Hi Jesse! I love the japanese maple too. Have you seen the
japanese red(blood) fountain grass? It's awesome.
Trees - I have always loved the Hibiscus standard(tree-form) because of it's ornamental size and shape but mostly because of the late summer/ fall bloom time.
Now we are very successful with the hydrangea standard
which I wasn't crazy about, but I am now.
Shrubs -Weigela
Perennials-
Thunbergia / Black-eyed susan vine
My new favorite. I grew this from seed and fell in love with it.
This is not mine but what it looks like from park seed.
I'm very impressed with park seeds results.
