Do you have any ideas what would be nice to plant in my front flower beds?

I just want something with low maintenance ... yet something that will last all season... btw I'm in Ohio. ( ya know ... weird weather here )

Do you have any ideas what would be nice to plant in my front flower beds?
You may want to try some roses in the back of the border and some sweet allisum in the front. Keep them watered in the warm weather. They are a one time investment. The sweet allisum will self-sow seeds for next year. Choose a variety of roses that are fragrant. Ask your nursery for help on that. They are usually very knowledgeable about the varieties of roses.

Reply:You need to determine what zone you are in first to see what is hardy (if you want perennials)

Reply:i love Osteos. they are SOOOO pretty...and a lobelia border....nice. petunias are very hardy but they are disgusting when the flower gets wet..slimy and gooey. Pansy's and violas are even better. and if you pinch the wilting dying flowers off you get ridiculous amounts of blooms....
Reply:I love hydrangias and orchids

Reply:You could try:





Tulips,Daffodils,Clematis this climbs,Rhododendron's,Wisteria/ Lavender is nice but no flowers,Hostas.





I live in Michigan let me tell you about weird weather.All of these will come back after the winter you will not have to replant them.
Reply:I think white carnation flowers and red roses would look nice.
