Isn’t this a very desirable coastal cottage garden? Most impressionist painters would have surely fallen for it! Created by Rhadiante Van De Voorde Elemental Design Group, we note the charming casual mix of colors and textures: the long-lasting pinkish blooms of the Beeblossom, the vibrant purple Mexican Bush Sage and the silver, velvety Lamb’s Ears. And we cannot help but admire the nice touch brought by the blue picket fence, which echoes the roof trim, and happily marries the garden with the house.
