Thomas Bergqwist wrote:Hi every one,
My name is Thomas Bergqwist I live in the south part of Sweden (village called Staffanstorp) and I am a devoted exotic gardener. My garden has exotic plants and some jungle atmosphere as theme throughout. And yes it is possible even with winter low temperature of -27C (2010/2011)
In the garden thrives different kinds of bananas, huge tree ferns, lots of palm trees, large adult hardy gingers and bamboo as well as all other possible and impossible plants. Most of the plants are growing in the garden all year. The garden < 600 square meters and I reborn every spring in is in full glory during the summer when we experiment from year to year.

Welcome Thomas. There are a few Swede members on here.

Photos would be great (as well as winter protection methods) icon_salut

Hello thomas?

Welcome to the forum.

You have a great looking garden there and its even more amazing to grow those sort of plants when you have recorded -27c.

I complain when it goes to -6c in SOUTHAMPTON?

Anyway welcome aboard.

Regards Billdango. icon_thumleft
