If you have the room you could landscape around the outside of the birdcage. This is what we did.

In the back center we placed a weeping bottlebrush tree with red bottlebrish and blue or purple plumbagos underneath the bottlebrush. On the two corners we placed Robin Red Hollies that are basicly in the shape of Christmas trees, should grow to about the height of the birdcage sides and produce red berries.

Don't know if you're going to do all the design selection and work yourself, be we used Megan from TerraScape for the landscaping and she helped us to make a design that fit our wants and concepts. There are other good landscapers like Stellar, McGowan and Mansfield, but we're glad we chose TerraScapes and will continue to use them for any needs we have in the future. Below are a few more pictures showing what I described above.

p.s. if you or anyone else wants to see the landscaping and/or birdcage up close in person, please PM me to make arrangements for a visit.
