Växtriket is a colorful and initiated story that is permeated by the entire Slottsträdgården Ulrikdal and Bosse Rappne's solid knowledge and experience about cultivation, plants and the garden, which they generously share.
Basic values about climate, biological diversity, ecological quality of life and plants run like a red thread through the story, as well as the continuous cycle of the earth. In Växtriket, you get to experience a whole year at the Ulriksdal Palace Garden, which the popular gardener Bosse Rappne ran for over thirty years. Take the inspiration and knowledge home with you and create your own plant kingdom! An experience for all the senses! Interest in gardening, plants and home cultivation is growing exponentially, and Slottsträdgården Ulriksdal is therefore a popular excursion destination with 650,000 visitors each year. People come to the commercial garden not only to purchase flowers and plants for the garden and window frames, but also for the experience, the vegetarian meal and the plant-rich competence of all employees.
With fantastic visuals and introductory texts, you get to experience the six seasons at Slottsträdgården Ulriksdal, which gives insight into how the garden's cycle actually works and see the plant kingdom from a different perspective. Many beautiful plants appear here, but also the flourishing life behind the scenes in the garden. From seed to finished plant with the help of a horticultural craftsman. You get both inspiration and initiated knowledge about planting together the most beautiful flower arrangements, how to fight weeds and pre-cultivate and fix the greenest lawn. Here is advice on how to succeed with potted plants and on the best winter storage. And the book is also filled with beautiful plant portraits where you will meet, among other things, the dahlia, the amaryllis and several of our favorite plants.
