We've just cleared our front garden and need to completely replant it. I'm a complete novice gardener and have no idea what to plant so I would be really grateful for any suggestions please!
The garden is raised up from the driveway and is surrounded by a rather ugly retaining brick wall at the front that is about 5ft in height when you look at it from the driveway. I'd quite like to grow some plants to trail over this wall to try and soften the look of it a bit.
When you are actually in the garden the retaining wall is only about 1ft tall and so I'd like to plant some shrubs to keep my children away from the wall as they like to lean over it at the moment. Ideally I'm looking for something that would be about 1m in height. The garden is northwest facing.
