Get the Cottage Look

Here’s how to create this lush, romantic style.

• Choose a variety of plants for a casual feel.
• Try materials that are traditional and timeless.
• Use dense plantings to maximize space.
• Mix ornamentals and edibles such as old roses and cabbages for a classic look.
• Tell a story with pass-along plants that have meaning.
• Add charm with fences or hedges designed to keep animals out of veggies.
