Utah garden design help

To say I'm a novice at gardening is an understatement. I've planted and then the next year I replant because everything is dead, no matter how much I water. Marie was so patient and kind with her advice. I have a large oddly shaped yard with terrible soil and on salty secondary water, so I'm set up to fail. she pointed out things she knew wouldn't survive and I was able to warranty them at nurseries so I wasn't completely out on those. then gave me advice on how to give my yard dimension and suggestions on plants that would not only survive but thrive. I also wasn't looking into fully grown sizes when I was planting so I had things that would overpower my garden beds but now I've swapped those out for appropriate sized perennials that will last for years. looking forward to having her back out when I tackle my next phases.
