Hi guys we've decided to start w/Foundation Landscaping at the front of the house (in front of brick). Any suggestions for type of plants, trees, shrubs, evergreens that are medium to fast growing and easy maintenance? A few landscapers suggested a foster holly, some hydrangea, and a few other things. As far as the foster holly goes, from what I've seen it grows very very tall ? Are there different types of foster holly?

Also what about hydrangea is that a good idea if so what kind?

Shrubs or evergreens, any suggestions?

I live in Zone 7 and this area is part shade/ part sun!

THANKS SO MUCH!!
