About: The garden on the roof of the University of Warsaw Library is one of the largest and most beautiful roof gardens in Europe. It is a very popular resting place for students, residents of Warsaw, and tourists. It is used by the organizers of concerts and happenings, summer cinema, and urban games. The garden consists of two parts: the upper (2000 m2) and lower (15,000 m2), where the main attractions are the ponds, the fountain, and the granite sculptures by Ryszard Stryjecki from the series Szkic sytuacyjny, referring to cosmological motifs.
From the roof, visitors can admire the city skyline and views of the Vistula River, and an abundance of plants planted by dominant colour. Gold is composed of yellow and orange flowering shrubs, including forsythia and vines, silver has silver-leaved willows, white with blooming Dasiphora fruticosa, as well as dwarf pine, Norwegian Spirea, creeping cotoneaster and juniper. The colour carmine is represented by pink and red flowering shrubs: Weigela florida, Meyer lilac, Clematis alpine, and cotoneaster. In the summer ground cover Super Dorothy roses bloom. The compostion is framed by miniature apple trees. The Garden on the Dobra Street side is slowly becoming blue. Its pride is the perennial clematis: Creeping Arabella, which blooms from June to September, and the beautifully fragrant clematis Cassandra; creeping cotoneaster complements these. Entrance to the roof from the garden, the “ramp” is occupied by blue blooming and evergreen periwinkle. The gazebo rising over the skylight is entwined with the five-leaf Virginia Creeper Trakai. This very hardy variety found in Lithuania fades to purple in autumn. The garden areas are connected by walkways, path, bridges and pergolas, on which Zilga vines, climbing hydrangea, and clematis grow.
Have a nice walk :)
