8 Perfect Plants for a Cottage Garden

I love the natural soft look of cottage gardens and this style of planting often influences my planting design work.
The plants I mention in this video are:
Digitalis purpurea (foxglove) 'Pam's Choice'
Digitalis (foxglove) 'Apple Blossom'
Campanula lactiflora 'Pritchard's Variety' (milky bellflower)
Penstemon 'Phoenix Appleblossom'
Orlaya grandiflora
Geranium 'Kelly-Anne'
Geranium 'Patricia'
Campanula portenschlagiana 'Catherina' (wall bellflower)
If you're planting when the weather is warm, make sure you water your new plants regularly and well so they establish.

I laughed when you said you don't like looking at soil. You mean, poor quality soil. Have a word with your client and discuss the merits of manure, mulching, etc. It will be worth the time and expense. Trust me, I'm a cottage gardener! Thanks for sharing your knowledge of plants. It was useful and entertaining.
