Hi folks, I have a 'bare' patch at the bottom of my front lawn and am
looking for some advice/inspiration on what to plant in it. any ideas?
what would look best? would like to stay with the same theme as up the
back.

Personally I think that strange bed looks looks just that..strange, it has
no relationship to the plants at the back. Have you removed a plant/plants
from that bed and wish to replant?

From the photo I would say you need a complete re-design of your front
garden. It's plain and rather boring and if you are getting into gardening
you will soon feel the same way yourself. Perhaps if you get a hosepipe and
lay a curve between both beds and see if one large bed curved (crescent
shaped) around joining the two would look better, it would certainly give
you more plant room. Then you need to decide if you want a minimum
maintenance garden or one that you have to do things too, the latter tend to
be the more interesting and colourful.
So it's dwarf conifers etc or herbaceous plants, your shout.
