I did grow white Antirihnums (sp I know) variety Royal Bride - grew them from seed, they have lasted 2 years but have now had it. They were very spectacular and elegant
Definitely white violas and Honorine Joubert anemone. Mine a still going strong. Also white begonias just repeat flower well into October, if they're in a sheltered spot - mine are still covered in flowers.
I think I've settled on these core plants for the parterres:
Anemone 'Wild Swan'
Dahlia 'White Perfection'
Cosmos 'Sonata White'
Penstemon 'Snowstorm' or Anaphalis triplinervis
Gaura 'Sparkle White' or Physostegia v. 'Alba'
Phlox 'David' or Echinacea 'White Swan'
Rosa 'Margaret Merril' underplanted with Campanula persicifolia alba.
I'll mix in some spot planting of Nicotiana sylvestris, Cleomes and Zaluzianskya capensis as gap fillers. For earlier in the season I'll add Narcissus 'Thalia', Tulipa 'White Triumphator, white lilies, and dot in some Aquilegia vulgaris 'Nivea'.

Thanks for the suggestions - some I like a lot especially that Abelia.
Would look good with the contrast of the Tiger
I am struggling to remove the current 'floor' of ajuga elsewhere though it does serve its purpose
And the Bergenia - I don't know why I didn't think of that
certainly getting more of an idea what will go now
And the brunnera are on my list but for the other part of the white garden
Bergenias are spring flowering - the OP wanted late flowering plants, otherwise I would have suggested the white varieties of those.
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...

Lysamachia Candela is a nice later flowering white plant.
