garden  

My husband has a garden and he grows corn, peas, butter bean, cuccumbers, peppers, brussel sprouts, tomatoes, squash and numerous other things.

For him the key is keeping a little fertilizer to it and lots and lots of water. And he sprays it regular with liquid seven dust.

Make your beds ready by raking up the soil.Add manure( its good to use organic manure) water it and let the soil loosen up.Then organise the beds and start planting.If you want a vegetable garden,you can sow beans,peas,herbs&greens.If you want cabbage,cauliflower,brocholli etc you will have to sow these seeds in a pot.After the seedlings are ready you must put them out in the beds.Just water them.Overwatering is also bad.For flowers the easiest to grow are hibiscus,bougainvillea,salvias,geraniums,these can be grown from cuttings.They catch on fast and you will have flowers.They dont need much care.Just water and manure them from time to time.Once you start gardening then you will improvise on it.That's how everyone starts.Hope you enjoy your gardening.

It depends on your weather condition a lot.
Where I am, Singapore I would make a choice of some plants that I want to see flowers quickly and others over a longer period.
For fast growing ones I remember BALSAMS of various colour and thickness of flowers. They are very lovely and have seeds to grow after one generation is replaced by the next.
CARPET GRASS for turf is great.
HIBISCUS for the hedges or at some corners are great.
BOUGAINVILLE in large enough pots, but always in a pot, will force it to flower instead of bearing many leaves. It makes for very interesting triming and making patterns like some chinese paintings. Wire the young branches to make it go the pattern you want.
