The greenhouses in the historic botanic garden in Göttingen. Seriously. The greenhouses! Old and quite small, so intensely green it almost feels like they were planted and then left to rewild in their tiny universe of tropical rainforest in the middle of chilly autumn Germany. The first one I entered was completely dedicated to ferns – this beautiful, ancient group of plants that triggers imaginations of fairies and trolls and dinosaurs. There was also a more generic tropical greenhouse, and a dryland house with an incredible selection of cacti.
