Well I don't know much about Wales, but here in Columbus, Ohio, my east facing garden with a house right next door does very well.

Basically, it's a garden designed for night interests, plants that are white or deep purple, night blooming plants, night scented plants.

Tell us more about Wales and the conditions you face. That would help a bit.
