I didn't stop because I don't want to continue, but I was confused about the difference in numbering, and I was afraid that there is something wrong with the editions. I preferred to hold until someone take a look on it, thread is still open.
These do not appear to meet the Goodreads definition of series, especially since they vary from edition to edition.

All the books have the same main title. They are numbered on the cover. They have a series editor.
Here, take a look at the colophon:

Redaktør: Carin Swartström (editor, same for all the books in this series)
and in the right column:
"In the series Alt om stueplanter these volumes are included: …"

"As a general rule, a book is only part of a series if that designation would apply to all editions of a work. To be a series, books should have characters and/or universes in common.

For example, SF Masterworks would not be a series, and neither would Harlequin Blaze."
This series is published in four Scandinavian languages, and the sequencing seems to vary. This series therefore deals with the Norwegian ('norsk') editions-
