Small time job but thought I’d pick the brains of you guys on what I should plant in these spaces. Southern California climate but irrigation is present already, just not being used. I might have to repair some piping.

I’m open to all suggestions including drought/low water plants but I hate gravel or stones in place of gardens. This needs to be beautiful, about to rent this place out for good $$ and it’s in the nice part of town.
