We have been in our home for a year, our landscaping in our front yard is horrible. My wife wants to keep the design simple and low maintenance. Your front yard gets afternoon sun but shade during the morning. I am looking for any ideas. We currently have two dwarf burning bushes planted under the windows. We would like something to go along with these. Also trying to figure out what type of bedding to use? Mulch or rock. We are leaning towards rubber mulch due to an ant problem we have had. But we know we do not want lava rock due to ants. Thanks everyone.

Just to note the little flower bed around the lamp post and tree is gone, just grass now.
