Low maintenance plants needed

Hi

We've just had a new flowerbed installed, with sleepers etc and now we need to fill it with plants. What we would like are some low-maintenance, hardy plants which, due to our complete lack of gardening ability, require the minimum of looking after.

Does anyone have any suggestions for us?
Many thanks

Nick

    Thanks for the list, was very helpful at the garden centre.



    They suggested a mix of compost (miracle gro etc) and topsoil in the bed, does that sound right?



    Thanks again
