Cottage garden collection
The cottage garden border style is easy to achieve. All that is needed is hardy perennials that produce lots of flowers and produce a border that is slightly out of control. Having spring, summer, and autumn blooming perennials are essential to making a cottage garden that stands out across the year. This collection will help you to achieve the most lovely cottage garden. Many of these are pollinator friendly plants and are sure to bring local bees and butterflies to visit. When ordering from, to save confusion, please take a note of the plants in this collection as by the time you receive them they may have changed.
