Boxwood vs Lavender

Trying to make something out of the “backyard”, it’s a mess but I spent the entire day yesterday digging and pulling weeds and there is an improvement. I want a nursery/kitchen/herb garden with cold frames and everything, little stone paths so that there’s no grass that needs to be mowed.

I want to make little borders to the flowerbeds and I think I want boxwood but lavender is nice too, but boxwood is evergreen, but lavender smell nice and is easy to sow… What to do? Maybe I can have both or perhaps that will make the flowerbeds too wide? My heart says boxwood but it would be a lot easier with lavender. Tricky, tricky…
