Thanks Marie I have at the very back Angel Trumpets which get big and smell heavenly in the evenings and lambs ear edging. I have some roses in there but the tall tropical looking plants are cannas. I have several different leaf and bloom colors of those but in the very back as a foil I use the tallest burgundy leaf one called "Giant Russian Red". The cannas are tubers, very tough plants that multiply and the Angel Trumpets are easy to start from cuttings. If you would like to start any of these by your pool either now or in the Spring please let me know and I will pack a box up for you. I love sharing my plants.
