Placed near seating areas and paths, fragrant plants are a treat for the senses. Whether herbs like rosemary and thyme (certain varieties also make for quite hardy ground covers, e.g., between stone slabs), mint (which should be kept in a pot due to its tendency to spread), or fragrant perennials that are also loved by insects, such as Agastache, Salvia nemorosa, lavender, or of course fragrant roses and shrubs like Viburnum opulus.

The scent of flowers, the soft splashing of water, gently swaying grasses - to transform a small outdoor space in the city into a healing, soothing, and restorative garden, I pay close attention to the interplay of elements that appeal to the senses and nourish the soul.

In the coming weeks, I’ll briefly introduce a few of them here.

Today I start with the tactile experiences:
Plants and materials that invites us to touch them, such as the soft leaves of the Alchemilla mollis, from which raindrops roll off; the fluffy flowers of Pennisetum alopecuroides ‘Hameln’; natural stone on the patio warmed by the sun; or round gravel that’s pleasant to walk on barefoot. Wood, too, in all its forms, offers a pleasant tactile experience. Whether as a building material, as a sculpture - such as a large piece of driftwood - or in its most natural form as a tree whose bark you can run your fingers over.

My studio garden in September. It’s been five months since it was newly built and I planted the perennials, which were tiny at the time. And despite the hot, dry weeks of summer, it’s still a sea of flowers.

1. Echinacea purpurea 'Alba‘
2. Daucus carota subsp. carota
3. Kalimeris incisa 'Madiva'
4. Verbena bonariense
5. Gaura lindheimeri 'Wirling Butterflies‘
6. Anemone hupehensis ‚Praecox‘ & Hakonechloa macra 'Mulled Wine'

What started out as a small, concentional city garden with a lawn has be transformed into my climate-adapted atelier garden. No more lawn - instead more planting beds in organic shapes and various garden spaces within this small area.
A big thank to Olof @gartenraeume and his team, who brought my designs in January to life and fully supported the idea behind it.

After the frost has passed in mid-April I started planting and am happy how green everything has become after just four months.

Two years ago, on my 50th birthday, I fulfilled my dream of starting studying at the London Academy of Garden Design – in the very 'heart' of garden culture. It was a wonderful and intense period, which has now come to an end with the award of my diploma. That’s why things have been a bit quieter here on Instagram.

Yet a lot has been happening outside of my studies too, such as lovely projects and a few trips – including visits to special gardens, like the Royal Danish Kitchen Garden in Gråsten (more on this in my journal on my website)
