Just after some plant recommendations for the following garden beds. The first picture the bed is around 2 metres long by half a metre wide while the 2nd garden picture is 8 metres long by 0.7 metres wide.
We're after natives with a preference of attracting bees, butterfly's. Would love to fill in the gaps of said plants with ground covering plants as well. Something that's incredibly low maintenance as both my partner and I are absolutely horrible at keeping plants alive.
Really appreciate any feedback and help.
Cheers.

I’d visit the local nursery and ask them what suits, they’ll know best.
I recommend NOT planting directly against your house unless you want termites. If you are really keen on keeping that garden bed maybe filling it with succulents would be better.
In the larger garden bed, be aware that anything bee-attracting will not be fun when entering and exiting the car, so perhaps placing those on the lawn side. Grevillea is great for pollinators or birds but choose low/dwarf varieties here. There are also ground cover species. Native grasses and kangaroo paw work well too.
