Post #6914527

We moved into this house 1 year ago, and have been doing little things to make it our own. There are no real "flower beds". I made 2 this year, but have this big area on the NE corner that I would like to add a flower bed to I just don't know where to put it where it would look best. The rock is 100% coming out along the sidewalk, I enjoy my grass, and hate pulling the weeds from the rocks. This is about the only area that gets full sun. We have cruised the neighborhood, and have gotten a couple ideas, but nothing that really stands out to us.
Is there a program of any sort that would allow me to use my picture, and try different shrubs and plants in certain areas?
Any help would be appreciated.

Edited to add: I was just looking at the picture, and am a little reluctant to put a bed by the fence because it will need to be redone real soon, tho maybe we could still get at it from the other side to redo it.
