About this item
The Modern Cottage Garden presents a new style of planting: a fusion between the New Perennial style championed by hot designers like Piet Oudolf, and the classic cottage style. This mash up creates an eye-catching and exciting garden style that will become the new classic. Equal parts inspirational and practical, The Modern Cottage Garden features real gardens as examples and details exactly how gardeners can implement the style at home. Plant suggestions highlight reliable and attractive varieties that can grow in a range of climates, and fresh planting ideas for containers and small spaces show that the style shines in every type of space.
