Talking with a good nursery person will speed up your planting, locals always know best. The best nurseries are always the small 'Mom & Pop' places. Prices do not vary alot, unless you go to the big box stores.

Picking a color scheme, using some perennial spring bulbs with summer perennials is a good way to extend the blooming season. I always plant in threes (in a triangle pattern) with the tall plants in the rear and short stuff in front.

Best of luck on your new project and remember it is a learning process, mistakes will be made.
