Landscaping the garden of a rental

I want to landscape the garden of my rented home without making permanent changes. What can I do to make the lawn and borders look less boring?

"Firstly you need to check your rental agreement to see if you are allowed to make changes to the Landscaping. To brighten up your garden you could plant seasonal annual plants in new borders you create or use tubs and planters so when you leave the property you can take them with you. I would suggest making a plan taking into consideration the sunrise and sunset. There's a lot to consider but container planting means you can move them around to suit."
