Would need to know where you are to suggest any plants.

“Yard of the Month!” Congratulations! I suggest building more planters like the wooden one that you have in front of the window to the left. I would place them along the edge of the front patio, spaced, and planted with wonderful colorful plants. Be sure to have “thrillers, fillers, and spillers.” I think that less is more. If you like your lawn, leave it as it is. But enhance the patio area with planters and more colorful, perhaps, seating.

I live in Southern California. Orange 🍊 County. Great weather all year long. That's a good idea. I think i will build another wooden planter and place it where you suggested. Yes, less is always better in my book. Thank you again! A lot of sweat blood and tears finally paid off. ;)
