Early Spring in the Orangery Linneanum at Uppsala Botanical Garden

After my report yesterday about the spring blossoms in Uppsala Botanical Garden do I now take You inside the Orangery Linneanum (off course named after Carl von Linné) built by money donated by King Gustaf III at 1789.

I did not have time to visit the whole house which just now also have a exhibit with potted spring flowers.
But here is some photos, Enjoy!

Sparrmannia Africana

Prunus Persica "Amsden"

Citrus X Aurantium Pomerans

Camellia Japonica-Thunbergs Kamelia

Apricot Prunus Armeniaca-Aprikosträd
 The flowers are not many in there just now, but beautiful and delicate

Even when looking down below the flowers and plants, it's beautiful
Have a great spring day, here it's full sun and +5C, I'm heading out, Per!

Bardini Hillside Gardens in Florence!

Bardini Gardens, next to Medici's Boboli garden, can be seen with the same entrance ticket!
The gardens climbing up a hill with many terraces, and are famous for the extra ordinaire blooming seasons through out the year, except now, off course :( Just have to come back!

This is the seasons, just check it out: Roses, Dahlias, Peones, Wisteria, Hydrangea, Camelias, Azaleas, Irises and much much more!
You have to use Your imagination when looking on these photos, Enjoy!

Some flowers where there after all
The Gardens climbing up the hill, and nothing for people with walking difficulties
The view from the top of the gardens over Florence and the surrounding landscapes are amazing and there is a café where You can sit and just enjoy it all
Would not be a Italian garden if there wasn't scupltures, and this one there is also many modern ones
 Beatuiful Terracotta waiting for next season
Imagine this Wisteria & Hydrangea pergola in the spring, mmmmh

We are saying good bye to Bardini garden with a vista from the Garden Café.
Thank You for joining me, Per!
