Cottage Garden
"To plant a garden is to believe in tomorrow." Audrey Hepburn
Cottage Gardening is a four-season appreciation of the beauty of nature!
Dad loved gardening. Dad instilled within me the love of the earth, planting flowers and edible gardens. My earliest memories are of sharing time with dad in the garden. I've lived in several places and have loved creating beautiful gardens at each of our homes. Now, we live in an old house and a number of the plants we have have been here for decades. I not only now can love my garden, but I can also love these vintage plants. In the spring a wide variety of Daffodils show up, in Summer I have beautiful Milk and Wine lilies and the roses. My house is quickly becoming the house in the roses! My favorite seasons are spring and fall...for the serenity in the air and in the colors - summer is bright, hot and exuberant here! Cottage gardeners love to get dirt on their hands, they love to see things grow from seed to plant...cottage gardeners absolutely do believe in tomorrow.
