The cottage garden
is a distinct style of garden that uses an informal design, traditional
materials, dense plantings, and a mixture of ornamental and edible plants. Others
were the old-fashioned roses that bloomed once a year with rich scents, simple
flowers like daisies, and flowering herbs. Over time, even large estate gardens
had sections they called "cottage gardens". Source
Container gardening
is the practice of growing plants exclusively in containers instead of planting
them in the ground. Pots, traditionally made of terracotta but now
more commonly plastic. Containers range from simple plastic pots, teacups to
complex automatic-watering irrigation systems. This flexibility in design is
another reason container gardening is popular with growers. Source

A back yard
(or backyard) is a yard at the
back of a house, common in suburban developments in the Western world. As land value increases, houses are built nearer
to each other. In order to preserve some of the open land, house owners may
choose to allow construction on the side land of their houses, but not build in
front of or behind their house in order to preserve some remnants of open
surrounding land. Source

presents blue-to-violet pigmentation instead of the more common red, white, or
