This garden
represents a style of gardening that was popularized in Britain in the 1930s by
gardener and author Margery Fish. Her love of flowers and nature led to
extensive research in the many plants that were traditionally grown in the
small cottage gardens in England. Her gardens were crowded together with myriad
plants of all colors, textures, and varieties of bloom. The result is a sort of
organized chaos. Our Cottage Garden attempts to incorporate many flowers and
shrubs in waves of color –white, blue, purple, pink, red, orange, and
yellow.
