I had been to Linnaeus gardens many times and all I saw was the twenty-foot long path, lined with plants, leading to the statue (shown in the first two photos). I thought that was all there was to it. It seemed pretty lame. 

Thanks to your blog, I just went again, and found the secret stairway just beyond the statue that led me down to <B>a hidden world of fishponds, waterfalls, flowers, a fountain, and a fine old red house</B>. Thank you.
