Rosy Inspirations
ROSEY READINGS:
The Modern Cottage Garden by Greg Loades
Can we create cottage gardens in Central Florida? The answer is 'Yes' as long as you use plants adapted to our climate.
British author Greg Loades describes the characteristics of a traditional cottage garden (herbaceous borders, perennials, lush plantings) and shows us several examples of the new cottage garden aesthetic including his own small urban backyard packed with container plants. His plant recommendations are characteristically classic English plants - just remember that in Florida we can use warm climate plants with similar growth characteristics to create our own tropical cottage gardens!
'The Modern Cottage Garden' is available on Amazon.
