I was recently featured on ShabbyLaneShops blog talk radio with an interview about cottage gardening...take a listen, about 15 minutes long
Here is the place where I love to show off my cottage garden, and a wild garden it is.
The most recent pics are at the top
My gorgeous Star Gazer lily , flanked on the left by "Betty Corning" Clematis
These Lupines were so glorious the first year, but sadly I lost both of them to a hard winter freeze
"Blaze" climbing rose

My favorite "false Queen Anne's Lace" not to be confused with the weed. But they certainly reseed like the weed if you don't thin them.
"Sally Holmes" white rose--this was when it was small...you should see it now--over six feet tall!

"Mock Orange" extremely fragrant in June
