Any great backyard flower garden layouts?

My first backyard (long rectangular shape with trees in corners) and I really want to design a great flower garden layout. Anyone know of any websites with great garden layouts? I want neat ideas. Thanks!

1. Well a pathway down the middle is a great idea. Putting some retaining walls along the side and planting them with perennials can make for a beautiful landscape with less maintenance. A Trellis or a seating area in the middle can be a great way to make use of this narrow area and can be used for entertainment. I have helped people with similar shaped areas and I designed in a fire pit in the middle. Or if you have an unused area possible put a grilling area or a fire pit. So much can be done with little spaces. My website has some real good ideas for design and maintenance. www.arbordoctor.net Click on landscape 101 and enjoy
