See the garden laid out in that style, with bed shapes you can take to a nursery.
What planning a garden actually has to get right.

Each style proposes a layout and plants that belong together, so a cottage border reads like cottage and a xeriscape bed looks dry by design, not by accident. You compare looks on the same photo before you commit to one.

The plan preserves your garden's structure (paths, patio, bed edges, and boundaries) and changes the planting and style on top, so it still reads as your garden. Ask for drought-tolerant or low-maintenance and it shifts to tougher plants, less lawn, and more structure.

You get bed and border shapes alongside the planting, so there's a real plan to dig to, not a species list. Save each version, compare it against your original photo, and share the plan with a landscaper.

“I inherited tired beds and never knew what to plant. Having a cottage garden planned on my own photo gave me a list to shop.”

“I send a client a garden plan on their own photo before we price a job, and the endless back-and-forth over the layout really drops.”

“We went low-water in the front beds this spring, and planning two xeriscape gardens on the photo made the swap an easy call.”
