if you want plant suggestions.. you have to tell us where you are.. big city name ...

some measurements of bed depth would also help ..

also.. what is there.. and is it staying.. or are you willing to move or delete such.. and what are they

and why are they planted so close to the house..

and can you stand in the street and show us the whole front of the house in one pic... instead of 3 disjointed pix ...

and finally.. what is your goal ... do you want trees.. shrubs.. annuals.. perennials.. etc .. there is a forum for each of those.. when you can tell us what your goal is.. its easy to tell you how to do it ....

and double dutch finally.. how much time do you want to spend tending what is planted??? .. do you want to piddle around out there for an hour or two every week.. or just go out there once a year and shear back overgrown ugly shrubs once a year???
