Some of the terraces are alittle formal looking for a true cottage garden. But I had to do it so I could plant. The best looking ones are made from the real deal, stacked stone. But I also have ones made of those premade stackable blocks you buy at Home Depot. The blocks cost far less than the real stone, I could not afford to do the real stone everywhere.

Then I still keep the spirit of a cottage garden by planting a jumble in the beds, terraced or not.
