Or you could put some tube there.

I'm no good at making suggestions, but something ever green would be nice. Maybe some small shrubs like Hebes etc ?

Or you could try some euonymus? The common varieties, I think, are Emerald n Gold, and Emerald Gaiety, and are easy to find in most garden centres. They are both evergreen. They have variegated leaves (two colours to the leaf), the first one is green and yellowy and the second is green and white. Both very pretty, evergreen shrubs and easy to grow in either sun or shade and brighten the place up no end. You could put a row of them down the stones area and leave gaps between to plant some annual colour, or some perennials that would come back year after year. You can clip the euonymus to keep them the size you want, or you can let them grow to eventually fill the space completely and do away with the annuals/perennials in the gaps. Anything goes really! Whatever you choose, don't forget to give us an "after" photo - I love seeing before and afters!
