Hi,
Could someone please advise a newbie on some easy flowers to go into this flowerbed? It gets full sun full on it most of the day in the summertime. Would like to keep the color scheme coordinated with the front of the house. So far, the white petunias? survived the Houston winter and are outgrowing everything else. Please advise soonest.

The little hedges are growing REALLY, REALLY slowly...the red thingies are begonias. Only one made it through the winter, ok. I've learned they get really great color in the shade, and bleach out in all the sunshine...I probably need to move them somewhere else.

P.S. A friend has offered me two Sago Palms. Would they really go in this little bed without crowding it out? Where would you put it?

Thanks!

Linda
