They are all about, or intended to be about, 2-to-3 feet in height, some flowering some not. I’m planning on doing the replacement myself and want to obtain plants that are hardy requiring minimal maintenance. I’m looking for suggestions on which plants might be best? Thanks in advance

I know my answer to your question is not what you are looking for, but as a part time resident also, I will give you some advise. Downsize your garden and plant grass. Otherwise, you will be fighting weeds endlessly. If you are at your home full time and can do a little bit of weeding every week, no problem. But if you are away all summer, the weeds will totally take over. The dam weeds really put a damper on your planned schedule when you get back to your villages home. Just some food for thought. Good luck with your new home : )
