Title: A Danish Rock Garden
Post by: Maggi Young on June 03, 2020, 08:08:45 PM

Kirsten Andersen and  Lars Hansen have  a  beautiful garden in Denmark.  The  two travel a  great deal to see  plants  in the  wild  and  grow  a lot  from seed.   You can visit  www.alpines.dk (http://www.alpines.dk)
to see pictures from their garden and plants they grow but  I'm sharing  here  some  photos  Kirsten has  recently  posted on Facebook.  The  first  few pictures are  from a  walk round  the  garden at the  end  of  May

Thanks to our Danish friends for showing us their outstanding garden. It is a already a longer
time ago, that we heard about about these friendly and very experienced gardeners and
it was always a big pleasure for us when we met them at various events.

What a terrific garden. I thoroughly enjoyed looking at the plants especially Ptilotrichium spinosum which we used to grow, and the Gesneraceae.
