2001: Botanic Garden (Design Bent Olesen Hystrom; Engraver Arne Kuhlmann) |
In the centre of Copenhagen is this palm house in the Copenhagen University Botanical Gardens. There are a complex of glass houses in its 10 hectares of informal gardens.. The Palm House is the oldest, constructed in 1874, and it comes with a cast iron spiral staircase. I wondered whether I had any other glasshouse stamps, alas it seems not so instead I turn to houses with gardens
or at least from the pictures, lawns.2014: Jersey Architecture Manor Houses (Design - Nick Shewring) |
But I spot a fine wisteria on Longueville Manor.

Beautiful stamps. Glass houses fascinate me.
And so does the wisteria.
... the wisteria reminds me of Bridgerton, in perpetual full bloom throughout the entire series.
There is a greater variety of styles than I would have expected on an island.
So many lovely stamps here! Love botanical gardens and should definitely pay a visit to the Copenhagen one!
The wisteria is a nice detail :)
Despite many visits to Copenhagen I never saw the Palm House - now I wish I had.
