My husband and I just bought some property in Malabar, FL, and I would love some cuttings/seeds, etc. of any plant that can give us a English Country Garden look.

Hi & welcome to Gardenweb! Congrats on your new house. Are you new to gardening in general, or just the area? Are you near enough to the ocean for salt to be an issue?

I wasn't sure if you were looking for permanent landscape suggestions, shrubs and perennials, or if you want to plant lots of little flowering plants... if there are existing beds to plant in...?

I would be looking for some packets of seeds, Zinnia, sunflower, whatever you think is pretty.
