The
garden lies on a south-facing gentle slope in the windswept
northwestern part of Denmark. In the center of the garden is our
house, and surrounding that, we have laid out the garden with
several rooms tied together with a web of paths and small lawns. The
soil is basically calcareous, but in most of the rooms we have
changed it to an acid soil to suit our taste in plants and planted
Rhododendron, Helleborus, Trillium, Lilium og Primula etc. Where the
soil is still limy we have planted collections of Paeonies. Spread out through the garden we have
built small Rock Garden beds with dry, sandy, well drained soil for
plantings of Alpines. We even have a pair of alpine houses where, in
early spring, our Herpatica collection is blooming.
