The advice given by @simone_in_wiltshire re the size and planting medium is ideal. Have you considered including some Spring and Autumn flowering bulbs as well to give interest for much of the year ?

Not a clue, there is not much to go by atm!
Are there actually "bulbs"? They don't look very bulbous, but have lovely fat roots. Could they just be something herbaceous?

We just touched 19c today and the sun peeked out briefly but the breeze stayed with us. It is 17,3c now and showers are still forecast.

If it’s any consolation @CostasK, I made the same mistake a few years ago with a speciality Eucalyptus which I bought to hide my neighbour’s home office/shed. It sulked and lost its leaves rapidly. I replaced it with bamboo. I think you may have caught your Portuguese laurel before that stage .

Saw brimstones again. Watched a very pale peacock feeding on a blue hyacinth and then basking on a stone slab. Quick glimpse of a comma near the pond. A few years ago we had sparrows pulling at the primrose flowers. Haven't done it this year but now they are having a go at the forsythia flower buds.
