Bulbous walk in The Botanical Garden

In the fall of 2018, 75.000 bulbs and tubers were planted in The Botanical Garden. Linneanum and other buildings have long been surrounded by lawns and flowerbeds that brighten up the garden in early spring. They, as well as our potted bulbs, exotic tubers, and recently planted species, are parts of The Botanical Garden’s collection of bulbs and tubers.

Here, you can download our map of areas with many bulbs and tubers(text in Swedish). The colours mark which part of the season the bulbs and tubers are in season. Areas marked with yellow flower in early spring (Mars-April), green areas flower in late spring (May) and red areas in fall.

Daylilies, Crocus speciosus, and Colchicum are some colourful additions to the flowerbeds in the summer and autumn.
