In Lund, situated between a graveyard and noisy dorms is Lund Botanical garden. Along the main road of the green garden you pass by trees, flower basins and a big lawn until it leads you to the greenhouse. The garden is free of admission fee and you are free to enter from morning until evening.

On a rainy June day there were guided tours in the botanical garden. The guide showed the red listed plants that were conserved in the garden and told that not all of the red-listed plants there were endangered. Rather they are conserved because there are only a few samples left in Sweden. If one looked up during the tour they would see a lonely flower that had gotten stuck to an umbrella and the water that was pouring off from it. Water had collected up on flowers and leaves in the garden. One of the tour participants had brought a macro lens which she was wiping the water off with a piece of cloth.

In front of the greenhouse is a small cafe. The jackdaws gather around the cafe's dining area to eat any leftover food. Every so often you'll hear the sound of bird feet hitting the metal frame of the cafe chair to which you turn around and see eye to eye with a jackdaw. Next to the cafe there are ducks swimming in a pond in between the lily pads and behind it there is a golden koi that is following like a shadow.

Even in the rain the bees collect pollen from the garden. Aphids can be found coiled around the stem of a few plans while ants march up and down. Furthermore, on a closer look one can also find spiders hidden in between the leaves.

The greenhouse has it's entrance facing North and if one goes in they'll get to a dim lit room in the middle. Here you have entered a groove so thick that little light makes it through to the ground from the ceiling. This is the Tropical Palm House. The air humidity is high and the temperature is high.

If one goes West from the Tropic Palm House they'll instead go right into the opposite environment. This is the Succulent House. The air is dry and the light from the sky shines right through to the ground without hindrance. Inside the room is filled with different types of cacti that reach for the ceiling. In between all of those thorns colorful flowers can also be spotted in bloom.

Outside the rain has stopped. As the sun shines the flowers pop in their vibrant colors. The bumblebee fly from flower to flower and collects pollen, and a girl can be seen playing between the plants. This is Lund Botanical garden and you can come here and enjoy the flowers the all summer.
