Create cottage garden colour with Canterbury bells I often use the term cottage garden when describing the type of garden a particular flower might best suit.

I actually use the term so often it’s easy to forget that others – particularly those new to gardening – might not know what I mean by it.

For those wanting to create this type of effect look for mixed bundles of cottage garden seedlings. These usually includes a mix of seasonal flowers like antirrhinums (snap dragons), carnations, love-in-themist and pansies, which combine together to create a lovely cottage garden feel.

roses (another cottage garden flower) because it likes the same sunny conditions.

Pick up some Canterbury bell seedlings from your local supermarket or garden centre.

Alternatively, you may even be able to buy them online and have them delivered direct to your door.

When you’ve picked the perfect spot to plant, dig in a little compost and a well-balanced fertiliser. This will help give your seedlings the right nutrition for a good kick-start.

Then plant your seedlings around 20cm apart from each other and spread some mulch and pea straw around. Lastly, watch out for slugs – they can be fans of these pretty flowers.

Because they grow quite tall, Canterbury bells take a while to mature. You should see them start to flower in around early summer or Christmas time. And if you don’t see them flower when you expect to, keep waiting – they will get there.
