Would you say that there is a particular Swedish style in gardens, particularly in your neighborhood? In my neighborhood, there is no specific tradition of gardening because it is an old agricultural landscape. But there are some beautiful plants in the plots: old peonies; this summer’s new favorite, Lilium martagon, columbines, and delicious-smelling wild honeysuckle and wild roses.
