Looks nice but they’d probably be upset over at r/arborists

You’ve crowded too much in too small of an area. The plants will not thrive because they’ll have to compete with the tree—and each other—for moisture. The fern will be the first to succumb because they like moist locations.
Consider moving the retaining wall blocks out two feet all the way around to make the garden area larger, then remove the much volcano and replant the hostas farther apart. Hostas can get very big, and the smaller varieties will get buried under the larger ones if you don’t give them adequate room.

Nice idea but you’ve planted everything far too close together and in too small a space. You’ll get a season at most out of this and the plants will not be thriving even then. I’d pull a few of those and plant them else where, the hostas especially. The varieties you chose are lovely but get huge. They need more space than this.
