We are sorting out our garden. Does anybody know of any software
whereby I could use a picture of our empty flowerbed and be able to
place pictures of flowers from a database? We could then place and
arrange exactly how it should look and then get and put in the palnts
for real. If there isn't such a thing there should be!

Any graphics program will do this. You could set up a grid in Excel and
paste pictures in it.

Yes, but I don't have any pics. What is needed is a group of different
flowers of various heights and colours and one can just place them in
the pic of the empty garden and arrange until happy..... Well that's
what I would like...

Many of these applications are just too complex or too limited. The
ones I have tried are more fun than useful. However, keeping a
garden journel can be a valued tool, no software required.
