the Kalmar castle garden (mid-May)

Strictly speaking not a botanical garden – but I still want to say I really loved the way the park next to the castle in Kalmar had been designed. Small, but meticulous, with a mix of open lawns and well-tended flower beds. And it was high spring: the colors amazing, bright green and pinks and purples, the sun shining through delicate leaves or the rain making the air rich with smells. Beautiful.
