Hi - we have a small front garden. Well, it's really a strip of grass behind some railings, the typical type outside your red-brick Dublin terrace. I haven't measured - but say maybe 10 feet (max) by four feet. Anyway, we don't want to keep the grass as it needs mowing all the time and that's too much work for such a tiny plot. So we plan to dig up the grass and plant it. We want fairly low maintenance, but with some flowers too, not just dullish shrubs. Our ideal would be a 'cottage garden' look but we think that might be too much maintenance. It's north facing, and probably clay type soil. Anyy ideas from anyone with a similar type garden? (Garden is a bit of an exaggeration!) Thanks.
