New Nordic Garden | Smultronställe

’Smultronställe’, a Swedish expression of a special place, where you feel happy and content. This garden was created with the goal to be a comfortable escape close to home, comprising a secluded courtyard garden. The garden is created with a meandering slate stone pathway, through lush planting, a simple and effective element that makes it orderly without restraining or overpowering the space. This gently curved path accentuates the planting beds, distinguishing the arranged space from the nearby bedrock and sedum ground cover.
The garden has been worked on with care and clarity, incorporating several small seating areas, benches and arching overhead structures, along with a small water feature, with a garden in harmony as a result.
The subtle planting include delicate early summer plants of the Nordics, such as Aquilegia, Paeonia and Trollius. This garden is an oasis of plants, colour and life, attracting a myriad of bees, butterflies and small birds. A very special garden for well-being, for wildlife as well as people.
