Garden inspiration: Eds Garden re-visited

As You maybe remember, in April I discovered this fantastic garden center outside Östhammar here in Uppland, "Eds Trädgård", very inspirational and different!
(Eds on Facebook)
I thought I was going to pay the garden and it's owners Gerrie & Eva-Lotta another visit in the summer when everything is in it's glory.
I did go back a couple of days ago, and I was not disappointed :D

To The Garden:
The first thing You smell already before entering the garden is the amazing Honey Rose: Hybrida R.Helenae

I love to explore this garden center, there is many places to sit down and enjoy the beauty and also see the flowers grown up not only in pots, so follow me on a little stroll:
Foxtrot Rose
The amazingly beautiful Mumy Rose/St.Johns Rose, the oldest cultivated rose known.
Cultivated atleast since year 100, introduced to Europe 1902
Morden Centennial Rose
Morden Centennial Rose
 
Aspirin Rose
I Love this Danish-Italian pottery
The Pottery Shed

Thank You for a inspirational visit in your beautiful garden center Gerrie & Eva-Lotta
and for the cooling glass of excellent Elderberry Juice!

Ed's Trädgård-Garden Nursery, a very pleasant discovery

Today it was a bright sunny day again, but still too cold in the nights to plant the flowers and trees.
Thinking of how to spend the sunny day this morning I saw in the local advertizing paper that Ed´s Trädgård (Garden Nursery) is open. I checked the address on Google and found out it's just along my bus line and a short walk from the bus stop.
Ed's Trädgård is just outside the coastal little town of Östhammar here in Uppland-Sweden.
I met the owners Gerrie from USA and Eva-Lotta, we chatted a little bit, very nice people, and they let me loose in their garden with my camera. Most of the new plants coming within the next weeks, but it was still a lot to look at, as well a lot of funky stilleben to take photos of and very sweet Chickens!

I just love the eclectic garden with the very large selection of plants, trees and bushes.
Here is the result of me wandering around, Enjoy, I certainly did:
I love this garden center, and will come back again within a week or so when they filled it with more plants and their Morrocon Style Café is open!


Back home in my own garden
You wonder if I came home empty handed?

No off course not, I got:

Day Lily/Daglilja "Joan Senior"
Thalictrum/Aklejruta 
Phlox/Höstflox "Alma Jansson", Swedish Culture Heritage Plant
Sweet Joe Pye Weed/Rosenflockel
Seaside Daisy/Strandbinka "Fru Frida Lindström", Swedish Culture Heritage Plant

All in all a beautiful day, hope You had the same!
