A simple, elegant and easy care foliage-driven plant combo for the shade garden. A variety of textures in blue and silver foliage from the hosta, brunnera and fern dominate the scene. They're enlivened by the pop of vivid yellow from Aralia 'Sun King' and black mondo grass provides a firm evergreen footing to the overall scene.
