We had a week in Cornwall September last year so here is a series all about our explorations ans wanderings.
Early on in our week away in Cornwall we set out to visit a little garden in the middle of the countryside, Poppy’s Cottage Garden. After a difficult year of weather the garden showed a little wear and tear, as did gardens everywhere.
Poppy had designed and created a garden that entices visitors to explore and wander, corners to look around, archways to pass through and seats to rest upon and absorb the atmosphere.
However strange seasons are and how muddled up plants must become they seem to not only survive but even produce flowers.
The garden, like most cottage styled patches was attractive to wildlife adding a further level of interest. Added movement, sounds and colours.
Every cottage garden needs a piece of sculpture or two, serious or humourous.
We enjoyed the plant combinations which are a strong feature of this little garden. The other planned garden visits were for much bigger gardens.
