This video is a visit to two extremely different Swedish gardens. We visit the romantic, airy Rosendals trädgård, with its emphasis on growing good food and botanic education. Then, by contrast, we visit Drottningholm Palace, a very formal and historic garden, surrounding the palace where the Swedish royal family still live. As midsummer is in the air, you can expect to observe the Swedish midsummer traditions as they play out in these naturalistic settings. Oh, we also take a walk on the wild side and briefly hike through the Swedish countryside so bring your hiking boots!

Yeah, I had to include the dining table bit, even though it was off topic. It made me smile too much. Thanks for watching and have a great Sunday!

Hello Rachel, both of these gardens are lovely and hiw adorable. How adorable is that little red squirrel. That's the first time I have ever seen or heard of them. I do a summer solstice lunch and family garden show. Since my birthday is June 21st, I thought it was a great idea. Thank you again for sharing your travels with us ❤😊.

A summer birthday is a wonderful thing. I've always enjoyed getting plants as birthday pressies in July because at Christmas you get nothing! Thank you for sharing, Wanda, and I hope you enjoyed your trip to North Carolina.

Hejsan Rachel! Its cold and rough in the winter here but I can assure you that the brambles do just fine! Been tackeling them at the summer house...😅...Most perennial plants do well thanks to a proper snow cover during the coldest season. We'll have to see what the climate change will result in though..things are definitely changing and becoming more erratic. But of course we envy the amazing gardening climate of Ireland...when I had the pleasure to start a garden in co Clare I was amazed at the growing power in just one season...and very little need to water..... Slán, Constantina

Sorry to hear of your battle with brambles. I feel your pain . Hate the things. I would love to have visited a Swedish private garden but it was not to be.

Such a lovely treat to have these gardens to visit and the info on Midsummer was enjoyable. The packets of seeds that you purchased are also grown here Down Under in Aotearoa/New Zealand and some colder parts of Australia. Grma 🌸🌟🌸

Thank you for watching and I'm glad you enjoyed the video. Annual seeds are always fun and how flexible they are, treating us all to heaps of summer colour, from Ireland to Sweden and New Zealand.
