Default Gardening Help! ~ Looking for perennials for Zones 8a ~ 8b.?

I soooo do not have a green thumb! I don't even have a yellow thumb...

However, I do have a spot in the front of my house that is absolutely screaming for some flowers and I'm determined that Gardening is going to be on my list of 2008 resolutions...

So, what I need...
I am looking for good cutting flowers; Iris, Daffodil, Tulip or the like for a space that gets ALOT of direct sunlight. Drainage is fair but can be improved. I would prefer, to begin with, not to have to deal with bulbs that have to be dug-up every year.

I have asked around at several of the local gardening centers and haven't really found anyone who could adequately answer my questions.

I live right on the edge of Zones 8a & 8b, or more to the point, on the very eastern edge of Williamson County, TX. About 20 miles northeast of Austin.

Thanks!
