the conservatory Victoriahuset at Stockholm’s Bergianska Trädgården

…are a helpful to see today, both in preparation for a June project here, and also planting in the similar climate of the Twin Cities in just a two weeks of for Edible Estate #15, so today we are at the extensive botanic gardens, Bergianska Trädgården, at the university, where in particular it the simulated rocky alpine mountain, some espalier apple trees, miniature raised beds of compacted peat moss, the endless berry varieties, and a visit to the Victoriahuset conservatory – which I can imagine would be quite a welcome tropical refuge in the depths of Swedish winter – that impress most.
