Looking for sun to part-sun garden ideas that combine romance, color, and structure? This Part to Full Sun Cottage Garden Plan brings together classic cottage charm with year-round beauty and effortless balance.
This pre-planned 15′×20′ garden layout features a stunning mix of perennials, shrubs, and flowering favorites—including a David Austin rose, coneflowers, lavender, hyssop, soft touch holly, agastache, Japanese anemone, arborvitae, and lilacs. Together, they create layers of texture, fragrance, and bloom from spring through fall, all in a harmonious palette of pinks, purples, apricot, and white.
Perfect for zones 5–8 and adaptable for zones 4–9 with substitutions provided, this design is ideal for foundation plantings, front yard borders, or cottage-style flower beds. Each plant was carefully chosen for its pollinator appeal, deer resistance, and long-season interest, ensuring your garden stays vibrant and low-maintenance year after year.
Whether you’re designing a new landscape or enhancing an existing one, this plan gives you everything you need to create a lush, colorful, and professional-looking garden that feels like it’s been growing there for decades.
Each plan comes with its own specific set of instructions, plant list, and scale.
The plans include one version with and without the scale overlay to make reading and planting a breeze!
The guides are self-explanatory and contain in-depth information about each topic.
