Here's a prairie garden of one of my former clients. She's since moved, boo hoo, and I won't get to go there anymore. But I still have the pictures.

Since it's very eclectic and free-formed I think it still falls into the cottage garden theme.

It's 99.9% Native prairie plants. The only ones that are not are a few 'Christophii' Allium which you just can't beat for color and texture.

It's nice to show people that these types of gardens don't have to look weedy. There's almost no staking - only the prairie blazing star.

Many of these plants will grow well on both coasts, the south and in between.
