What kinds of flowers do you have in the front of your house?

I may be overly excited with our inspection coming up on Sunday but I have been looking at different types of flowers and such to plant in the front yard (fingers crossed Chat Icon Chat Icon ) -

What types of flowers do you have planted in the front of your house?

I am looking at Red, White and Pink Tulips to plant in Oct/November and I love a Cherry Blossom tree in the middle of the yard... I am looking for other ideas for flowers that bloom when Tulips aren't blooming Chat Icon TIA Chat Icon

Re: What kinds of flowers do you have in the front of your house?

I normally plant inpatiens. Last year I also planted petunias on both sides of my walk way.

This year I am going to plant hosta's - and a bunch of different perennials.

For down my walkway I am thinking of doing some type of grown cover. I am not sure what yet....

Re: What kinds of flowers do you have in the front of your house?

We took out bushes in this area, THICK bushes that covered the whole front of the house. I just put this flower bed here, but I still need to fix the lawn (where the original owners dug up the lawn to do something to the septic tank) and I need to put a border in to hold the dirt in.

These were spring flowers, daffodils, tulips and hyacins(sp?).

I'll be putting different flowers in to dress up this area this summer.

I have daffodils in the spring, I plant impatiens in the late spring. I also have hydrangea's in various colors.

We also have one small japanese maple tree and a maple tree with holly bushes all around that bloom with red berries in the spring.
