To me nothing beats the rural charm of an English cottage garden. I like the casual unpretentious beauty of this relaxed garden style, where flower beds are filled to the brim and plants are allowed to go wild. This garden is a perfect example for that. In the border a blue hardy geranium is used to frame it, various delphiniums, and a tall catmint variety and other perennials are adding hight. In the background is an old a little run down shed embraced by a climbing rose. A tree and two cedar columns are rounding out the scene. Nothing is overdone or stands out, everything in perfect harmony. How do you feel about cottage gardens? Do you like this garden style? Are they your cup of tea or not? The photo was taken last year at Whitcombe House, a private garden that opened its gates to the public for an NGS Open Garden garden event. It is located in Overbury in England. #cottagegarden #cottagegardenstyle #organicgardendreams #charm #rural #ruralcharm #englishcottagegarden #casual #unpretentious #beautiful #hardygeranium #delphinium #catmint #flowerbed #border #oldgardenshed #gardenshed #relaxed #whitcombehouse #overbury #cotswolds #england (at Overbury)
