Amy, my cottage garden is very new I’m still adding plants. This is mostly the 2nd year for 85% of it. This year I’m using your charting method of the bloom times of plants. Because I found a big problem with that. Some things I planted together are not blooming at the same time. And I’m having the lull in it now. Some color still but also the clash in the center. With a couple spots I love. White Scabious and Liatris look great but at my feet I have blanket flower about two feet away. I just need to figure out my bloom times.
