    Grow some annuals...... fill gaps, cut flowers for house, add scent.  Sweet peas, calendula, cosmos.  Best of luck, it will be beautiful

    As the garden is long and thin, you might want to try and block the view a bit, so you cannot see straight from top to bottom.
    One way to do this, would be to have something tallish on the apex of the curves. That will add mystery.
    What you have done so far is beautiful.
    How can you lie there and think of England
    When you don't even know who's in the team

    Very beautiful. You have done an amazing job and everything going to look great. 

    Lots of good suggestions from everyone. +1 to some stepping stones and +1 to winter interest with some evergreens. I would say use two roses for obelisk instead of 1. Add some Clematis to fence and add some fragrant plants like star Jasmine, lilies, wallflowers etc whatever you like as fragrance is very personal choice. I feel fragrance adds extra dimension to the garden.
