Hi, Shannon. Welcome!

Very pretty garden!

I love your yellow lilies. Do they bloom for an exceptionally long time? My neighbor down the road has some yellow ones that seem to bloom non-stop all summer.

Love you Ecinachia. Great idea, is that a plantstand for support and which hybrid is that? 'Raspberry Truffle'? Your garden is lovely!

Amazing shots of garden! The pictures are absolutely beautiful. The cottage garden is a distinct style of garden that uses an informal design, traditional materials, dense plantings, and a mixture of ornamental and edible plants. Thanks.
