English Cottage Garden Flower Border Design Kit
Rock your inner Monty Don with this beautiful English Cottage Garden Design Kit. These ready-made garden design kits have been created for you to easily and quickly plant a professionally designed garden with an English Cottage Garden style. Everyone loves this design as the traditional flower border compliments every style of home. So your ‘someone special’ will love this unique gardening gift.
I have created a traditional planting scheme with blousy peonies, fragrant lavender and elegant foxgloves in a harmonious colour scheme.
The border measures 3m x 1m, but can easily be adapted to fit any size or shape of border.
All designs contain a mixture of perennials (plants that die back in the winter and return in the spring) and evergreen plants. The plans have taller plants at the back of the border, with shorter plants at the front of the border which provides a tiered effect. The taller plants will grow to around 1m in height but can be pruned to the required height and shape.
CONTENTS:
- Garden design (fully labelled) to know what plant goes where
- Plant list – containing simple and clear information about each plant in the design including plant care and flowering periods
- Tips and ideas to personalise and help you create your gorgeous garden
- 2x Packet of seeds to scatter between the plants for added colour from spring through to autumn
- Mood board with photos of each plant so you can see how pretty they look together
- 2 x wooden plant labels
- Book – “Creating Your Garden”. Includes 60 pages of top tips, ideas and easy-to-read information to help all new gardeners
PLEASE NOTE: DOES NOT INCLUDE PLANTS
