Consider using different foliage textures and colors instead of using plants that bloom. Adding variegated leaves, such as Variegated Ligustrum, Variegated Pittosporum, or Variegated Ginger, against a darker leaf adds a nice color contrast in the landscape.

Colored foliage such as Sunshine Ligustrum, Loropetalum, Copper leaf, or Stromanthe will give you year round color.
