Along with the fashion for castles and pseudo-Indian buildings, the picturesque movement promoted the rustic beauty of cottages. A number of thatched cottages were designed by important architects, including Nash. The romantic English cottage garden, with its billowing masses of roses, really dates from this period, earlier cottage gardens were more practical. Since romantic cottage gardens are still being created; it could be said that the picturesque movement is still alive.
