My parents were avid gardeners, and when I bought my house, they told me to make a list of the plants & bushes I liked, and see which grew in what season. Once I did that, we decided the colors and needs for each and went from there. I had awesome spring gardens, and low maintenance for the other seasons.
If you can list some of the plants you like - for your area! - then you'll be ahead of the game before hitting the gardening stores.
FWIW, my spring gardens started early, but lasted until mid June. There are so many hybrids of tulips, daffodils, etc that you can do that more easily than 20 years ago!
