Thanks.
Yes, Milky, there are red leaved Cannas which I potted up and took in to the potting shed for the winter but I left the green leaved ones in the borders and , although they survived, they are still very small and can't be seen yet in this photo.

Lovely design. Everything blends so well. What are the tall yellow flowers at the back?

They are a perennial Foxglove Valerie.Digitalis Lutea. Not as showy as the biennial types but they last a few weeks in early summer. They do spread quite quickly though and have to be divided evey so often.
