How exciting to have a brand new spot to landscape.  I no longer do landscape designs but if you want to send a photo of your new space to me here at ATE I would be happy to give you some planting ideas. Include your climate zone and how much sun the area gets and also any information about your soil, likes and dislikes and how much time you have to weed and water. A new garden is a new beginning and you will enjoy the experience. Keep growing, Marianne Binetti
