Rose wants to fill her rectangular garden with flowers again, but this time, each type of flower blooms in a different season: Asters in spring, Begonias in summer, Cannas in late summer, Dahlias in autumn, and Easter lilies in spring. She still intends to plant one flower per square foot in each region. The cost and respective regions remain unchanged: Asters $\$1$ each, Begonias $\$1.50$ each, Cannas $\$2$ each, Dahlias $\$2.50$ each, Easter lilies $\$3$ each. She wants her garden to have blooming flowers for as long as possible throughout the year. What is the minimum cost such that she still experiences blooms from early spring to late autumn?
