Default quick advice please

Right , I know nothing about gardening , and nor to be honest , do I want to
.. ( well , not too much anyway !!! )

I have a medium sized garden that is just grass in the middle , and a 2
foot wide border of soil all around the outside .

All I want to do is chuck in some bulbs at about a foot apart all the way
around the outside so I have flowers and a nice bit of colour there coming
around June time and will last all summer .

I dont really want to be bothered actually buying ready grown plants and
re - planting them . if I can help it , so are there any cheap , quick
growing bulbs that I should plant now that will do my job .

A simple ,
" yes you want X amount of this Y type of bulb and plant about Z
distance apart and will give you Red flowers , in about xx months time .

" yes you want X amount of this Y type of bulb and plant about Z
distance apart and will give you Blue flowers"

" yes you want X amount of this Y type of bulb and plant about Z
distance apart and will give you Yellow flowers"

ect , ect

Thanks in advance .
