And I agree with Pam that your system starts very simply and evolves over time. I ended up with three sets of shoplights and hundreds of plants in my former home. I got into such a habit of growing them that once I finally decided what perennials I wanted that I ended up putting them in pots EVERYWHERE!

I also had about 13 feet of wall in the back, as well as retaining walls, all covered with plants. These were the LEFTOVERS! You know a person has lost it when she blocks access to the staircase with plants!

Here is a sample from the back retaining wall. I loved packing pots and then putting them in front of other plants. The plants are cerinth, a North American Lily society stem, and salvia farinacea. This was in August, and the whole pot would be in bloom in September.
