I want to design and English cottage garden?

in my backyard, I live in the country/ city area, and it is small approx 40 feet wide and approx 20-30 feet (it definatley looks much wider then long in length) and there is also a ditch to sweep away water when it pours really bad, does anybody have advise on how to decorate it, or know of any good websites to go to ( i am more a visual person, if you have pictures that would be nice) and also would anybody know of how to still use up the space by the ditch?

Hi:


An English cottage garden is a very good choice for your area. Think of an English garden as either informal or formal. You will need to plan, prep, and plant the garden. There are many different trees, flowers and shrubs you can use. Most people today want a low maintenance garden with a lot of evergreen shrubs. Think about doing pathways through the garden. There are many different styles of pathways. Decorative stones, no cement, natural pine straw or mulch. Also think about planting in masses. (a group of one plant together) I have many different ideas on my website. Take a look at the different designs as well as articles, pathways and plant selections. Good luck to you and if you need advice on specific plants and ideas, feel free to contact me.
