kilnashee's Frontyard garden

Garden Type: Frontyard | Sun: Partial Sun | Soil: Clay I'm Organic!

My front garden is a confused mess of plantings. I don’t know how to get it to look filled out. I’m on a budget too, so I can only buy so many plants each year. I have a big gaping hole in the middle in front of my lilac bush and irises that I don’t know how to fill, and that attracts the neighbourhood cats. I have two raised(ish) beds that are edged in patio brick left over from the back yard. This garden gets strong morning sun and afternoon shade.
