Thanks for the tips. I am guilty of some of those myself. Buying small instead of bigger plants, buying cheap birdseed that is half milo, etc.

What did you have to pay to have them do your flowerbed, if I may ask?

This is a new flowerbed we (mostly DH) just made. I had to take 2 pictures to get it all in, but you get the gist of how it looks. The blue lobelia in front of the lighthouse is suppose to be the ocean, with a few white ones thrown in for the whitecaps. lol Problem is, I think they are getting too much sun where they are and are dying off on me. Have only been in the ground about a week and I'm losing them. I need to find another low growing blue flower, I think. That's not too easy to do.
