点评:There's an interesting variety of views on the garden in recent reviews. I have been here before, 10 years ago, and knew what to expect when I revisited it in June of 2024. Keep in mind that this garden is not primarily designed to be beautiful, or to be meticulously maintained. It is called a rosarium for a reason - its primary historical purpose has been to act as a collector of significant roses, similar to what an arboretum is for trees. It IS beautiful, in season, but that is an incidental result of its primary purpose, to acts as a catalogue of roses. In that, it is outstanding.
A few comments:
Timing will matter. While there are quite a few modern roses in the collection, which will bloom all summer, the majority are the older once-blooming roses, which reach their peak in June. Out of season, this garden will not be as attractive.
This is a great place to educate yourself on the different categories of historical roses, and what they look like (eg. gallicas, albas, damask, etc). It helps if you know some German, or have access to a translation app on your phone, as much of the signage is in German.
Almost all of the roses were properly labelled, which was very helpful (and which is a huge achievement, given the large number of roses).
For me, it was particularly nice to see the large collection of climbing roses, as we cannot grow those in our climate. They were spectacular when I was there.
I ate at one of the kiosks in the garden (bratwurst and chips). Apparently prices in the main restaurant are high, but at the kiosk they were reasonable, and there was a nice picnic area next to the kiosk.
翻译:最近的评论中对花园的看法多种多样。我 10 年前来过这里,2024 年 6 月再次来这里时,我知道会发生什么。请记住,这个花园的主要设计目的不是美丽,也不是精心维护。它之所以被称为玫瑰园,是有原因的——它的主要历史目的是收集重要的玫瑰,类似于树木园。它在季节里很漂亮,但这是它的主要目的的附带结果,即作为玫瑰的目录。在这方面,它很出色。
一些评论:
时间很重要。虽然收藏中有不少现代玫瑰,它们会在整个夏天开花,但大多数是较老的曾经开花的玫瑰,它们在六月达到顶峰。淡季,这个花园不会那么吸引人。
这里是了解不同种类的历史玫瑰以及它们长什么样(例如高卢玫瑰、白玫瑰、大马士革玫瑰等)的好地方。如果你懂一点德语,或者手机上有翻译应用,那会很有帮助,因为大部分标牌都是德语的。
几乎所有的玫瑰都贴上了正确的标签,这很有帮助(考虑到玫瑰的数量之多,这是一个巨大的成就)。
对我来说,看到大量的攀缘玫瑰特别好,因为我们的气候无法种植这些玫瑰。我在那里的时候,它们非常壮观。
我在花园里的一个售货亭吃饭(有德国香肠和薯条)。主餐厅的价格似乎很高,但售货亭的价格合理,而且售货亭旁边有一个不错的野餐区。
