Cottage Gardens

Cottage gardens evoke a sense of nostalgia and charm, brimming with colorful blooms, fragrant herbs, and a touch of wildness. They're a celebration of nature's abundance and a delightful haven for both people and wildlife.

Elements of a Cottage Garden

  • Abundant Planting: A mix of flowering plants, including roses, lavender, foxgloves, and hollyhocks, creates a tapestry of color and texture.  

  • Informal Design: Cottage gardens embrace a relaxed and informal style, with winding paths, overflowing borders, and a sense of organized chaos.  

  • Traditional Materials: Natural materials like wood, stone, and brick are often used for paths, walls, and fences, adding to the rustic charm.  

  • Wildlife-Friendly: Cottage gardens are havens for pollinators, birds, and other wildlife, thanks to the diverse planting and welcoming environment.
