Answer 1

It would help to get a soil test, which will tell you what is lacking in the soil. If the soil has a lot of clay, you can add amendments to loosen the soil. If you have not fertilized, you could try a 10-10-10 slow release formula on the flowerbeds and see if the flowers do better. On the lawn, add a nitrogen lawn fertilizer if you have not already.
