need suggestions for a layout for my grassless back yard

Hi, I'm a regular contributor on the hot pepper forum, but this is my first visit to this section.

I have attached a sketch (drawn to scale because I'm an engineer) of the backyard of the condo in Tampa FL the wife and I are moving into next month.

I need a good place in the sun for my hot pepper plants (15 of them, 5 gallon pots), a spot for a grill, a spot for an herb garden for the wife, and ideally some flower beds (I wanna plant marigolds since they attract beneficial insects).

there is no irrigation, and frankly I don't even think there's a hose connection, so grass isn't an option. I was considering using mulch or rocks as a ground cover.

any suggestions you guys could give would be truly appreciated.
