Bob Vila emphasizes selecting disease-resistant plant varieties to ensure a thriving cottage garden with minimal maintenance. Essential tools include a sturdy garden fork for soil preparation and a sharp pair of pruning shears for maintaining plant health and shape. Integrating herbs like lavender and rosemary not only adds fragrance but also provides practical culinary uses directly from the garden. Consider incorporating self-seeding annuals such as calendula and poppies for a continuous display of blooms throughout the growing season.
