With Cottage plants, we tend to see wispy, delicate looking plants. The Cottage planting style appears random, as if nature had just dropped all kinds of seeds in the garden. In a Cottage garden, the cottage plants enhance the overgrown look. You’ll often see a lot of different plants blooming at different times (this means more maintenance than other gardens).

Sample Plants

• Shrubs: Miscanthus, Penstemon, Nepeta, Hemerocallis, Lilac, Hydrangea
