She asked me for suggestions, but I am pretty new at this myself. She is a schoolteacher & doesn't have a lot of time except in summer. She would like bulbs, I know, and perennials, She doesn't want to have to plant every year. The yard will be used for the usual young couple BBQ's and at some point, they may get a dog. The only thing she says for sure is peonies & lilacs. The house was built in 1919, and she would like it to match the period. Flowers? Vegetables? Flowering tree in the middle maybe? OK, you experts out there, go crazy in your imaginations! We can post progress photos. Remember, we're working with the budget of a school teacher & a musician (musician = $0.00 or close to it, LOL)
