Garden Visit: Mette Krull’s Danish Greenhouse

In Denmark, a greenhouse is the summer equivalent of a screened porch. Danish photographer and gardener Mette Krull’s greenhouse on Funen (Hans Christian Andersen’s birthplace) is integrated into the garden, not tucked by the compost pile. Her container pots have Instagram fame (@krullskrukker).

Greenhouse in garden — Greenhouse glints in afternoon sun, integrated into the garden.

Cucumber and cacti — “School cucumber” plants line one side; cacti, citrus, tomatoes, herbs on others. Many Danes have seating in greenhouses for transitional seasons.

Modular containers — Modular metal containers hold grow bags of high-nutrient compost with subdued plastic wrapping.

Watering can — Mette photographs plants for her popular Instagram.

Clematis on obelisk — White and mauve Clematis ‘Florida Sieboldii’ on rusted metal obelisk softens cactus collection.

Plants on tables — Plants elevated on tables, shelves, deep planters; lower shelves for storage.

Bins and bikes hidden — Bins and bikes hidden behind semi-transparent partition; greenhouse takes pride of place.

Outbuildings — Multiple outbuildings: small black tool shed, larger “second garden house” recently finished.

Little shed — “The little shed” with valerian flower heads reaching the roof.
