Flowers! You can have pots by your front door. If you have a porch, baskets would be great. Plant a mix of perennials and annuals in front of the shrubs in front of your house. Perennials come back year after year! Plant some around any trees.This can do wonders!

I love petunias, geraniums, zinnias, impatients, salvia. There are many flowering shrubs and trees available also. Check with your local nursery … they can give you many wonderful ideas. Just be sure to read the labels on the plants to see if they grow in full sun, shade or sun/shade.

You could even add a birdbath or some garden art for personality.

Have fun!

I dont know where you live, temperatures, climates, what seasons like, full sun, partial, shade, etc. But definately flowers brighten up anywhere. Go buy some bulbs in the spring & fall plant them accordingly, seeing some daffodils, & tulips pop up in sproing, so homey & nice. Also just some flats of flowers at local big home store, or local nurseries. Plant around sidewalks, around any existing trees. 2 nice big flower pots if garage up front, 1 pot on each side of garage, or just 1 at front door. make a mixture of colors-real bright. also soem flowering ornamental trees for the front is nice. maybe if you have a little spot, nook, corner for a bench, under a tree, up by porch, flowers around that, maybe a nice bush that attracts butterflies, hummingbirds–ask local nursery. some nice stones or fresh mulch around the flower beds you’ll plant. so go with a variety of flowers, just go to nursery read the little labels, it will tell you where to plant in sun, shade, partial, etc. Hey maybe even a little fountain for a focal point, nice touch! you creative, have time, or money to hire someone if you dont want to do, a nice little pond, flowers, greenery, wildgrass around that.

The basics of starting and caring for your first garden, from the first turn of the soil to the first harvest of your flowers or food.

Depends too much of you Zone area to choose the best plants and flowers to fit on it. You should search what zone is and them you can search for the perennial flowers (most recommended) and other ornamental plants.

well it depends a lot on what type of light it gets – full sun(petunuias, begonias, marigolds, geraniums). Shade(hostas, impatiens, coleus). Flower beds need to have a mixture of colors and heights. Also use a variety of periennals(come back year after year) and annuals( live one year only and then die. If you plant only annuals every year its going to get expensive and time consuming. Periennals are things like stella d’ora daylillies, hostas, creps myrtles etc.

Have you thought about birdfeeders? Some are very inexpensive and birds come from all over. Flowering bushes (azaleas are popular here in the south) don't need a lot of care but are beautiful when they flower. Up north, I loved lilac trees which also come in bushes. The smell is heavenly and they have lots of flowers. If you have a trellis or a wall or fence for something to climb up, plant jasmine. Jasmine has little white flowers with dark green glossy leaves. It grows quick and is very fragrant. Any bright colored flowers you plant will attract butterflies! Try a butterfly bush! Comes in all sorts of colors.

Jackie has the idea — practice.

It’s not complicated and the only hard part is weeding. Buy beautiful flowers you enjoy (perennials come back yearly, annuals must be either brought in to overwinter or repurchased yearly) plunk them in the dirt. MiracleGro or Root stimulator when first planted will reduce transplant shock. Water as needed. Fertilize every other week.

You’ll do great. Have fun playing in the dirt.

Annuals? Perennials? Xeriscape? There are thousands of websites that can help you out, what you have to do is decide where to start. I have answered these same type of questions professionally for years and the truth is that every situation is unique. If you don’t really know where to begin, I suggest actually going to your local nursery (not the big box stores) and ask for help there. You’ll get much better information than from a generalized website.
