I want a simple looking bed, with easy to take care of plants. I have a separate section of my backyard for vegetables and herbs and stuff, so I want the garden bed to look simple. What types of plants should I plant there?

It depends on where you live. I live in a desert so plants like sage, sedum, lavender, sunflowers, yarrow ect are very good and require little water.
If you live in a more humid climate, day lilies are very proliferous and look good, maybe some buck-eye daisies, astilbe, bergenia, hosta and butterfly flowers are a few good ones. Check out this web site for more ideas.

I would look for perinnials so that you never have to replant, and find stuff that blooms at different times of the year, so that the garden is always pretty.

good luck!

I am trying to choose flowers for my wedding and i love the look of roses, but they’re just to expensive. I need something similar that can be dyed or that comes in black, purple and or white.

I”m getting my flowers from flowersandfreshness.com .
I also am on a limited budget, and want roses as well. They have roses in bulk, and they come in bud form and in all different colors. The total price including shipping is only 165.99 fro 200 roses!!
Take a look at it, and never go the fake flower route ecspecially for the most special day of your life !!
