It looks lovely Kate, I`m one for filling in spaces so mine very often looks overcrowded, as long as my plants thrive the more the merrier is my motto, lol. Your Hosta is doing well, mine are dying back now and yes the flowers are quite pretty although most are grown for their foliage...

It all looks great Kate. I don't think it is overcrowded, a cottage garden is supposed to be crammed full (cuts down on the weeding too!). Well done.
