Question
my question is... what are some favorite annuals that you could recommend? i am tired of my yard and lawn being so desolate and scary looking. help please! thanks, les

Answer
What gardening zone, or state/climate are you located in ?

What is your preference ? Low maintenance, color, size/shape/fragrance, etc ??

You say year round annuals.. do you mean perennials ?

Annuals = one season (replanted every year)
typically flowers prolifically all season

perennial = more seasons (returns every year. Either evergreen (stays alive through winter depending on area you are located), or herbaceous (dies back to ground in winter but returns next spring). Some will flower for a long period, but generally perennials have shorter (more defined) flowering periods than annuals.

You are looking for annual or perennial ?
What is your climate/state/gardening zone ?
Do you have any preferences (low maintenance, fragrance, color, etc)

I will answer your question if you can give me some more information.
