The Local _ Svealand _ Garden tips please!

Posted by: CoachZee 19.Jun.2015, 08:46 PM

I wonder if garden lovers can help me out here please? I'd like to use a space - 10m x 8m or so - that is pretty clear of growth since we removed some trees; to plant wildflowers & easy plants that will take care of themselves since we don't live here year round. Love the idea of having some large stones if I can figure out a way to get them i.e. haul them home from the woods. Would like to have plants for all-season interest since we do come for a few weeks in the winter too. If you have any favourite nurseries or garden centres in the Avesta-Fagersta areas please recommend. Any tips welcome & all information gratefully received!

I know of a few resources for a little further north/higher zone, maybe this will inspire you:

odla.se is a good website for info.

FYI if you don't own the land then you are not permitted to take stones from the forest. It's not part of allemansr?tten.
