Not sure what qualifies for a cottage garden, but right now my Camellias are putting on a show, along with the daffodils and hyacinths for spring. A little later the Irises, and then for summer the lilies. Salvia was a big favorite for the first time last year, and growing many more varieties this year!
Had a great, colorful random bed of Zinnias and Gaillardia last year, that were all volunteers. Probably couldn't do that again if I tried, but I loved it!
