My garden is about 30 ft long x 20 ft - with a garage and a path down
the west facing side. I never know what to do with it - I'm retired
now and heavy work is getting hard. Should I get a landscape gardener
in just to sort things out - how much will it cost - or I was going
to find some agricultural college student/s to give me some advice.
What do you think?

How about getting a book or two to start with, to see if any 'ready made'
designs catch your fancy, then contacting local landscape garneders to
implement. SOunds like you have soem fairly good thoughts on what you want,
ie low maintenance, so then its just a question of getting something that
looks good from your POV. Maybe a local college could help with a student or
two to amend a design that you think is a good basis for what you want.
