Garden Decoration
The rose garden is designed with roses as the central content, but also in interaction with other plants in smaller beds, so that you can get ideas and inspiration for combinations in your own garden. For those who simply want to take a walk in the rose garden, it opens up in all its diversity the moment you step through the gate. Paths lead you around the garden, and along the way you can enjoy the beautiful panoramas and read about the garden's plants. Close to the entrance you first encounter the No Wall, then in one of the two story gardens you can see and read about the Stadil Church Rose, then the Stranding Rose, and in the same way experiences are provided that you as a guest can observe from a distance or immerse yourself in. Remember to stop along the way, enjoy the long views that make the garden so beautiful. Sit on a bench in the courtyard, take out the food basket, for example, it can be enjoyed here. The garden has been laid out with great care, intimate, but at the same time so that the view is preserved, and that is precisely what makes both West Jutland and the Rose Garden with its colorful flower so beautiful, and therefore it appears as a natural part of West Jutland. All plants are carefully marked. Where there is a story, there is further marking, for example. the picture above which is the No Wall, made of old bricks from 1856, the bricks were produced in brick kilns, of which there were many in the parish at that time. The base stones are possibly from the old church in No, which was demolished after the Reformation in 1536 because the parish had been abandoned after several plague epidemics.
On a good day during the flowering season, a tour of the park can easily take a couple of hours; at least if you want to take a closer look at some of the roses and perhaps discuss both color, shape and favorites with your companions. Or take a closer look at the garden sculptures, or immerse yourself in the History Gardens, others bring a packed lunch and sit in the courtyard and enjoy the Moschata roses with the ground-covering roses in the foreground, or just sit by the No Muren and enjoy the view.
It's easy to become completely overwhelmed by the many impressions. Once you've smelled the best roses around, you can get pollen on your nose like fine ladies at the great English garden shows.
The rose garden, like any other garden, is never finished. Many guests come here several times during the season, some to follow the garden's development, others to see more of what they experienced on their last visit.
But every encounter with the rose garden is a new experience, because a garden is constantly evolving. The garden renews itself every single day. If you visit again after 14 days, some roses will bloom more than last time, others less. The hedges may have taken on a different green tone, the light is different, and you yourself are hardly the same. These are the experiences we have created the framework for. In addition, the garden is renewed year after year with modern beds, where today we combine roses with other plants, especially perennials. At the same time, new roses are added every year, so the garden is a collection of roses that you can also enjoy at home in your garden.
That way, a day that falls outside the program - may turn out to be the very best - inside the Oasis Behind the Cliff.
