Arico, I think you've got a fantastic design started and it does sound like you'll enjoy a diverse collection, both in the working and the enjoying. I think when you get down to the perennial/bulb/annnual level is where you'll want to make any planting of a particular kind not TOO small and mixed up. From my yard, my feel is that since I have sooo many kinds, (and many are natives not super showy, one misses 'seeing' some interesting individuals. I think Bea's works because it is mixed very tastefully and, the individuals are big enough to stand on their own.
Hope you will keep us updated
