If the Spring offers such magnificent flowers, the Summer is inundated of the intense scent of the Linden trees (Tilia), a tree native to the northern hemisphere, which name derives from the Greek ptilon (feather) for the shape of its leaf that facilitates the wind spread of its fruits. Another magnificent ornament in the garden is that of the weeping willow (Salix babylonica), with its particular shape. Among the protagonists of the centuries-old park we cannot forget the Spanish bog oak (Quercus palustris), which tolerates pollution well and is transplanted easily: a strong tree, as we use to say.
Given the proximity of the lake basin, the Cypress of the marshes or Bald Cypress or Tassodio (Taxodium distichum), a water conifer originating from the United States, found its ideal place, as it is suitable for damp and frequently flooded places. Finally, around the flower beds and walkways we find the Yew (Taxus baccata), treated according to the rules of topiary art, with geometrical and ornamental pruning.
Next to the old Villa, in addition to some plants already mentioned, there is the Japanese maple (Acer palmatum), from the Far East (Japan, Korea, Taiwan and China), with leaves of numerous shades of colour from purple to green.
Among the most exotic species, there are beautiful specimens of Celtis occidentalis, commonly known as hackberry, nectletree, sugarberry, beaver... a large tree native to North America. The park also features fruit trees such as the Lotus or St. Andrew's tree (Diospyros lotus), which produces spherical berries of about 2-3 centimetres in diameter.
The Ginkgo biloba is an ancient tree whose origins date back to 250 million years ago, and for this reason it is considered as a living fossil, the only surviving species of the Ginkgoaceae family.
