Thanks! I have at least 5 months of winter ahead of me, then a full
summer of trying things, I'm certainly not in a rush. For now I will
just plant a few fall bulbs.

Any ideas or great websites for garden design??

Great idea: Your library, and at least a dozen books. If it takes you less
than 3 months to come up with a design, it's probably a bad one.

Three book recommendations:
"One Man's Garden" and "The Essential Earthman", both by Henry Mitchell.
"The Essential Shade Gardener", by George Schenck. There has never been a
better book written in this category. And, he's very clear about which
plants also do well in sun. Some plants fail completely with the wrong
light. Others just grow differently, but are equally beautiful.
