A pollinator-friendly berm

In Peg Bier's wonderful garden on the Garden Bloggers Fling, there were shade plantings that were lovely.  I admired her container combinations, too, and bough a Laurentia today (at Merrifields Nursery) based on one I'd admired.

But what I really found compelling were the full sun perennial garden up on the berm, separating her property from the neighbor's detention drainage area (I think-- it was all mown grass).
