Description
A green space with parking for 460 vehicles – the parking zone in this Park is essentially a landscaped area, with a large number of trees, that uses new turf techniques for car parks: a PVC grid protects the grass from vehicle wheels and the height of the grass is naturally controlled. The vegetation provides a contrast with Avenida 5 de Outubro, and the predominant tree is the Horse Chestnut (Aesculus hippocastanum). The remaining trees and shrubs are grouped by height and foliage, in order to make the most of leaf colour and blossom at different times of the year.
Plants that stand out: Cedrus deodara, Cupressus sempervirens, Populus nigra 'Italica', Gingko biloba, Camellia japonica, Azalea indica, Rhododendron sp, Cotoneaster salicifolia, Choisya ternata, Hydrangea macropgylla, Spiraea bumalda, Spirea japonica, Cupressus horizontalis, Tamariz pentandra, Prunus lauroceraus, Ilex aquifolium, Magnolia soulangeana, Forsythia intermedia, Philadelphus coronarius, Hebe 'Autumn Glory', Laurus nobilis, Viburnum tinus, Eleagnus pungens ‘Maculata’, Erica, Hypericum and Berberis.
