The area looks great.A Banana will be fabulous but will need winter cover or keep it indoors over winter.A tree fern (Dicksonia antartica) would also look superb, but cover the crown with fleece during winter.You could add some Cannas but they need frost protection as well.Phormiums are great for height and structure and are quite tough.A good book is 'Exotic gardening for adventurous gardeners' by Christopher Lloyd. It is full of lovely ideas and superb photos.Hope this info helps.Best wishes and happy gardening.
