So I moved into this house a couple months ago and once I finished my flooring and paint, I decided landscaping was next. Check out my pictures and let me know what you guys think. I want to know the strong points, the weak points and everything in between. Keep in mind, I am 23 years old, this is my first house, and first time ever planting anything. So any help or ideas are appreciated. Thanks in advance.

This is the house right as we moved into it. Not very nice looking landscaping, but grass that is nice and green.

This is after I did the brick work. I added some river rock and a couple small plants. There is a sago palm, 2 banana leaf looking things, and a queen palm. It is very easy to maintain.

This is the section that I am kind of excited about. I raised a planter right there, so as I grow flowers from seed, I can plant them there. I wanted an easy to maintain front yard, but that one area will be my pride and joy.

Another view, but with some pavers I installed to take up space and make it easier to walk.

New flowers around palm trees. They didn't do great at first, but they are getting better slowly.
