I'm creating a new flower bed beside the new guesthouse we installed a couple of weeks ago.  I'll be planting Holland flower bulbs this fall.   The bed will be mostly in the sun.   Trying to decide what I want in that bed that's compact and content the rest of the summer, fall, and spring.   I do not want to plant roses.    We're in climate area 8 I believe (Midlands of South Carolina).

Any suggestions/recommendations?

    To those who might be interested:

    I planted a medium purple butterfly bush, 2 portulocca (volunteers), small compact holly w/o thorns (volunteer), lantana (volunteer).   This November, I'll be putting in some blue spectacle tulips (they look more like dahlias), salome & palmares daffodils.  I have also put in a couple of stepping stones (look like flip flops).

    Although I'm mostly a vegetable gardener, the butterfly bush we planted last year has been amazing!
