Garden Styles

Lookbooks for the kind of garden you want

Zone 9b · Coastal Fog Belt · Arcata, CA

Each lookbook gathers a full set of plants that share a feeling - anchors that define the style, plus companions that fill it out. Pick a style, build it slowly, swap plants as you go.

Mix and match

These styles are starting points, not rules. A cottage corner inside a native garden, an edible path through a faery patch - most of the prettiest gardens borrow from several.
