Garden design ideas needed for cottage garden
Comments (9)Love the frontage of your cottage. That wall is adorable! You have a couple of shrubs there already. Do you know what they are? There are some great low growing plants that need very little work once they are established. As well as T Gray‘s suggestions, you could also add Aubretia which is a low growing plant that has gorgeous purple flowers in spring. It’s very common and available everywhere. Campanula is a blue flower that cascades in summer (some are tall so read the labels). Another flower is Erigeron, again it spreads and is low growing with quite large purple daisy like flowers in the summer. My favourite is Geranium - they come in a huge array of colours and various heights so check those before buying. They flower in the summer. Don’t forget daffodils, such a ray of sunshine in the spring. They can be planted in the autumn. A lawn is a great idea - relatively cheap to lay too. I think the best way to have a low maintenance garden is to stick with trees and shrubs which dont need too much fussing with. Trees can be pricey, but so many places sell shrubs, not just garden centres, such as nurseries,, supermarkets and even car boot sales!

Comments (9)Hi Ellie, ok I will edit it more as it should read we want all the shrubs and trees removed which is a tall feat when your not qualified I would guess. Also with the council not available to remove garden waste, we already have a lot piling up with the compost awaiting the date for when we can remove it. Our garden already has fence all the way around, however it needs updating as it has broken it a lot of places....See MoreGarden Designers and Landscape Arch's: Garden Furniture best brands?
Comments (2)If you have already completed the construction phase of the house, it will be a little more difficult to fit everything in. Thinking about the landscape design immediately when creating the project house is desirable. But if that wasn't possible, it's worth doing it now. Also, if you want to create a special interior in your recreation area, think through the color palette and style. Which will be in harmony with everything around. You can see everything you need to do this here https://www.gardenfurniture.co.uk. I think that if you add more bright furniture, it will look more lush and beautiful against the green garden. Shades of orange or blue would work for you....See MoreGarden and patio landscape design ideas needed!
Comments (3)Hi there, Looks like you have a nice space to work with there! Certainly no problems to extend the patio and maybe even creating an additional seating area. Adding a firepit is a great idea as it creates a cozy and relaxing space and also extends the time that you can use your seating area for (as it brings in light and warmth). I offer a range of affordable online garden design services that you can choose from. Please do get in touch if you want to find out more! I would be very glad to help!
