Smultronstället
 
2010-07-02. I visited the garden centre named Smultronstället.

Smultronställe means: Spot for [finding] wild (wood) strawberries. But smultronställe also means something positive. Like a wonderful place you want to go to. By ex. a garden or park  you like or the pace there you have you summer house.

Ove is looking at the wooden barrels.
The lilac was still in bloom.
Me by the lilac.
These flowers are named "stepsalvia" in Swedish. I could not find the name in English or Latin.
There were many wonderful flowers. You could buy them or only look at them.
.
I never have seen such a flower before.
Dasiphora fruticosa. In Swedish called Ölandstok. This flower use to be yellow. I never have seen any that is orange.
