I'm a year behind you! We just bought a house and are moving in within the next few weeks. Did you not plant anything your first year, just plan? Do you have any advice for yourself a year ago?
Mostly we planned, because we missed all the early spring blooms (we actually kmoved at the end of April/beginning of May), so had to wait to see what we missed.
We did plant volunteer tomatoes, the iris rhzomes we brought with us and sunflowers.}:P Later in the fall, we planted quite a few trees. Those I think we should have waited until spring for (it was a local tree steward group's fall native plant sale, so got 11 trees for less than 100.00), as a few obviously didn't make it and others are iffy, thanks to the odd winter.
Best advice is to wait a full cycle of the seasons so you know what's where and can plan accordingly.
