Need Landscaping HELP!! NOW W/ PIC
Hi ladies!
I am looking for some help... here is a picture of the front of our house. We just put in a walkway (the pic is before it was 100% done) and I want to put some bushes in front - in between the house and the walkway - but I don't know the first thing about shrubs.
Here is what I would like... (don't know if it even exists lol)
*Something that is on the smaller side... I don't want anything that is going to grow so big it covers the garage windows or the porch
*Something that blooms something - a nice color
*Something that requires low maintenance because I kill things easily 
Is there anything out there like that? Do you have any pics?
Please share your expertise and advice!
TIA LADIES! Image Attachment(s):

There are so many things out there. I would go to a local nursery that can help you out with your requests. This is what we have right now in our front yard.
The yellow flowers are DayLillies and they come in Red and I think Purple also. HTH!

Ohhhhh! I LOVE the stones you have around your garden. DH and i were thinking of something like that in the front of our house. Did you do that yourself. I am hoping to do something like that myself.

Thanks! Yes we did it all. The stones were in our backyard (buried).  Long story, but these were free. And we planted everything too.

How about a butterfly bush or some roses (the roses are pretty difficult though). Or an azeala. They are pretty for early spring color and stay pretty much the way you trim them.
