Comments (2)I am usually not a fan of roses as foundation plants in the front. I do not like thorns next to a walking path or entrance. The other reason is that only passers by get to enjoy the view of front roses. I am selfish enough to want roses where I relax in the back garden. I would fill most of your front beds with a ground cover plant that could be mowed from time to time. Some months ago we had a thread asking for curb appeal on a house but I found their garden so impressive that I kept a picture of it. I don't know the type of plant but you can see it is low, attractive and uniform. I see some Hostas but I do not think they are needed. If it is not invasive in your area I would use something like Ceratostigma plumbaginoides. I see a vine near a corner on the right side of your house. I would remove that if you do not enjoy gardening minutiae. I like vines but they require some tying and training in the beginning. My impression is you have other things you would rather do. I also see many medium to large shaped shrubs in back and on the side of your house. If you do not enjoy shearing shrubs I suggest removing some of them and training others to be more tree like with exposed trunks on bottom. Another thought is to replace them with plants that do not grow as large. Such plants do exist but it requires more patience in choosing plants. The front of your house has a balanced look and does not require being smothered in plants to be attractive. I like annuals so I would recommend leaving an open space near the entrance for seasonal color....See MoreMakeover advice needed for Farmhouse

Comments (4)Your inspiration is really pretty! I like the idea. You can go with the blue green paint if you want. But I do think possibly a bluer or maybe just a simple warm white is more versatile. Definitely need a large cream colored plush rug. A big bed. Cream or white curtains, bedding... and then we’ll add some color with some pillows and throws... I would wait on the light because it depends on what other choices you make. Possibly something like this??...See Morecarmarthenshire
